The Food and Drug Administration recently announced recalls of specific products that include frozen strawberries due to their link to a Hepatitis A outbreak.
The products were sold at Costco, Aldi, KeHE, Vital Choice Seafood, PCC Community Markets, and Trader Joe’s and include specific lot codes of the following products:
• Simply Nature, Organic Strawberries
• Vital Choice, Organic Strawberries
• Kirkland Signature, Organic Strawberries
• Made With, Organic Strawberries
• PCC Community Markets, Organic Strawberries
• Trader Joe’s, Organic Tropical Fruit Blend
The FDA notes that other stores and products may be affected, as the virus infections are linked to a supplier of frozen organic strawberries imported from certain farms in Baja California, Mexico.
Five illnesses, two of which resulted in hospitalizations, have been reported so far.
The FDA recommends verifying here that the recall has not affected any purchases of frozen organic strawberries. If consumers ate a potentially compromised product, they should immediately contact their healthcare provider for follow-up.
