Israel's Ministry of Health has issued an immediate recall for various nuts and dried fruits sold under the "Nir V'Nitzan SCHAR" brand due to severe sanitary deficiencies and operation without a manufacturer's license. The Central District's Food Service found the factory in Moshav Azaria, located on HaMeysadim Road, operating in extremely poor sanitary conditions that could endanger public health. The recall affects a wide range of products including peeled nuts, walnuts, cranberries, sesame seeds, dark raisins, and coconut, packaged in sizes from 200 grams to 1 kilogram, with expiration dates up to and including February 2028.

Following these findings and concerns about product safety, Dr. Udi Kellner, the District Health Officer of the Central District, signed an administrative closure order for the factory on Wednesday, October 28, 2026. The Ministry of Health is urging the public not to consume any of the affected products and is providing details to help consumers identify them. The factory was reportedly operating without the necessary permits, raising further concerns about its compliance with food safety regulations.
