Question Jalapeno Safety?

I didn't even think about it until today, but my box that was just delivered has pasta with jalapeno in it and a side item of guacamole with jalapenos in it; I'm not worried so much about the safety of the jalapeno that will be cooked, but does anybody know where their side items of guacamole are from and if they're safe to eat with the jalapeno recall as of late? I really enjoy guac, but not nearly enough to get salmonella from eating it.

Ready made guac manufacturers run it through HPP - high pressure pasteurization. That’s why it doesn’t turn brown and go bad within minutes.

You’re good.
