Scenic Fruit Company said it is recalling frozen organic strawberries sold at Costco and Aldi, and frozen organic tropical blend sold to Trader Joe’s due to an outbreak of Hepatitis A illnesses.
Although Hepatitis A has not been detected in this product, out of an abundance of caution, consumers should stop consuming the product and return it to their local store for a refund, the FDA said.
The company has ceased the production and distribution of the product as FDA and the company continue their investigation as to what caused the problem.
The lot codes and best-by dates are found on the back of each bag.
All inventories of the affected lot should be removed from sale, according to the FDA.
Consumers who have purchased the products are urged to destroy or return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
Consumers with questions may contact the company at customer.service@scenicfruit.com.
