Attention all Costco and Walmart shoppers! We have an important recall alert for you. If you recently purchased frozen fruit from either of these retailers, you may want to think twice before consuming it. Both Costco and Walmart have issued a recall on certain batches of frozen fruit due to a potential risk of Hepatitis A contamination.
The recall was initiated after the FDA discovered that the frozen fruit products may have been contaminated with Hepatitis A. This viral infection can cause inflammation of the liver and lead to serious health complications. It is especially dangerous for individuals with weakened immune systems, pregnant women, and the elderly.
The affected products include various frozen fruit blends sold under the Kirkland Signature and Great Value brands. The specific products and lot numbers can be found on the FDA’s website or by contacting the retailers directly. If you have purchased any of the recalled products, it is advised to discard them immediately or return them to the store for a full refund.
Both Costco and Walmart have taken swift action to remove the affected products from their shelves and are working closely with the FDA to investigate the source of the contamination. They are also implementing additional measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
If you have consumed any of the recalled frozen fruit and are experiencing symptoms such as fever, fatigue, loss of appetite, nausea, or jaundice, it is crucial to seek medical attention immediately. Hepatitis A can have serious health consequences, but early detection and treatment can greatly improve outcomes.
To stay updated on the latest developments regarding this recall, it is recommended to regularly check the FDA’s website or follow the official social media accounts of Costco and Walmart. Your health and safety should always be a top priority, and being informed about potential risks is an essential part of that.
