Story at a glance

Sunrise Growers Inc. has initiated a recall of frozen fruit products linked to pineapple that may be contaminated with listeria monocytogenes.

Listeria monocytogenes can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in children, elderly people, and others that may have weakened immune systems, though so far no illnesses have been reported.

Affected stores include Walmart, Target, Aldi, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s and AWG.

MINNEAPOLIS (WTAJ) — A massive recall of frozen fruits is underway across the country that includes such retail stores as Walmart, Target and Aldi.

The voluntary recall comes from Sunrise Growers Inc. and includes specific frozen fruit products linked to pineapple that may be contaminated with listeria monocytogenes.

Listeria monocytogenes can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in children, elderly people, and others that may have weakened immune systems.

Symptoms in healthy people may only be short-term and could include high fever, headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea. However, the infection can cause pregnant women to have miscarriages or stillbirths.

So far, no illnesses have been reported, the FDA said.

Consumers with these products should not consume them. Instead, they should either throw them away or return them to the store of purchase for a full refund.

Saying “our commitment to food safety remains our utmost priority,” Sunrise Growers has ended all future business transactions with the third-party supplier.
