Simply Nature, Vital Choice and others Frozen Organic Strawberries and fruit blend - recalled due to Hepatitis A

2 months ago

United States

Scenic Fruit Company of Gresham, Oregon is recalling frozen Organic Strawberries sold to Costco, Aldi, KeHE, Vital Choice Seafood, PCC Community Markets and frozen Organic Tropical Fruit Blend sold to Trader Joe’s due to an outbreak of Hepatitis A illnesses.

Hepatitis A is a contagious liver disease that results from exposure to the Hepatitis A virus, including from food. It can range from a mild illness lasting a few weeks to a serious illness lasting several months. In rare cases, particularly consumers who have a pre-existing severe illness or are immune compromised, Hepatitis A infection can progress to liver failure.

Illness occurs within 15 to 50 days of exposure and includes fatigue, abdominal pain, jaundice, abnormal liver tests, dark urine, and pale stool. Hepatitis A vaccination can prevent illness if given within two weeks of exposure to a contaminated food. Persons who may have consumed affected product should consult with their health care professional or local health department to determine if a vaccination is appropriate, and consumers with symptoms of Hepatitis A should contact their health care professionals or the local health department immediately.

The following products are subject to this recall. The lot codes and best by dates are found on the back of each bag

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. 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.

All inventories of the affected lot should be removed from sale. Consumers who have purchased the products are urged to destroy or return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.

In case you experienced Hepatitis A symptoms such as fever, nausea, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, dark-colored urine, and jaundice (a yellowing of the skin), it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve issues and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance.

… yes that is exactly how food poisoning works. If it is toxin-mediated then the symptoms can begin pretty fast after eating.

i'm sorry for the influx of wannabe funnymen from twitter. you got hospitalized and it was horribly scary. i don't think it's right for people to make fun of you for that bad experience bc they are so ignorant they think you mean all ranch is toxic. i hope they grow and mature out of making fun of a person for getting sick.

My husband and I each got a salad there at the airport on Thursday, May 11, 2023. Mine was a chicken Cesar salad. The chicken looked odd… Almost translucent, but I figured it was processed chicken. A lot of Caesar dressing was on it so I couldn’t... See More tell that it tasted strange. The bill came to $29.06 and we purchased it around 3 PM. My stomach hurt all day on Friday, May 12. In the middle of the night on the 13th, I began vomiting and having diarrhea. This continued all day on the 13th through the night. I missed my son’s college baccalaureate, luncheon, and party. I was able to see him walk across the stage, but couldn’t attend the whole graduation ceremony. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain See Less
