My boyfriend and I went to Dine with Orcas at SeaWorld Orlando on December 2, 2023, and we’re 99% sure that he got food poisoning from his meal. He ordered the pan seared salmon and I ordered the Roasted Beef. We both had the same sides. He... See More started feeling nauseous and vomiting like an hour after we were done with our meal and the symptoms got progressively worst throughout the day. The only conclusion is that he got food poisoning from the salmon, because I do not feel sick. So either the salmon was undercooked or it was left out for too long before it was served. I did notice that the food was a little bit cold by the time it was served to us. | Symptoms: Nausea, Vomiting See Less

Update December 06, 2023

The FDA announced that the company issued a correction to states distributed to for Sprouts to include Florida and remove Alabama. No additional products or dates have been added.

Source: FDA

November 29, 2023

GHGA, LLC is voluntarily recalling select fresh-cut products made... See More from whole cantaloupe subject to a previously announced product recall initiated by Sofia Produce, LLC dba Trufresh, due to potential Salmonella contamination. The fresh-cut fruit products containing recalled cantaloupe were distributed to Kroger stores in Alabama and Georgia, Sprouts stores in Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina, and Trader Joe’s retail stores in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and Tennessee. No illnesses have been confirmed to be associated with products.

Salmonella is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.

All GHGA fresh-cut fruit products associated with the recalled whole cantaloupe associated with the outbreak have expired, however, consumers who have purchased these items and may have frozen them for later use are urged not to consume the products and return the items to their local store for a full refund.

As of November 29, there have been no illnesses reported related to GHGA fresh-cut products. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), several illnesses have been reported to date in connection with the whole cantaloupe recalled by Sofia Produce, LLC dba Trufresh, however, as of November 29, no illnesses have been confirmed to be associated with GHGA products.

The products are packaged in clear square or round plastic containers, marked with a “sell by” date and a lot code on the label.

Voluntarily recalled items include the specific products, lot codes, and expiration dates below. No other products are affected.

You can see the affected products list in the images attached or in the link below.

In case you are experiencing Salmonella symptoms, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.

Company name: GHGA, LLC
Brand name: Sprouts Farmers Market, Trader Joe’s, None
Product recalled: Fruit cups and trays containing cantaloupe.
Reason of the recall: Potential to be contaminated with Salmonella
FDA Recall date: November 29, 2023
