Packages of frozen fruit sold at Costco and Trader Joe's are being recalled due to a risk of hepatitis A contamination.
The makers, Scenic Fruit Company, asked that the FDA issue the recall for packages of frozen, organic strawberries sold to Costco, Aldi, KeHE, Vital Choice Seafood, PCC Community Markets and frozen organic tropical blend sold to Trader Joe’s.
Just one of the products – the 16-ounce package of organic tropical fruit blend with UPC 00511919 – is distributed in North Carolina. Other products subject to the recall are sold in other states. The FDA posted a complete list of products, states and details.
“Although Hepatitis A has not been detected on this product, out of an abundance of caution, consumers should stop consuming the product and return it to their local store for a refund,” Scenic Fruit Company, which is based in Oregon, said in its announcement.
Scenic Fruit Company said that it has paused production and distribution of the products in question while it investigates the issue alongside the FDA.
A company spokesperson told NBC News that the frozen strawberries came from its supplier, California Splendor, which announced Thursday that it was recalling certain bags of Kirkland Signature frozen organic strawberries sold at some Costco stores in California and Hawaii.
