Fruit recall over Listeria scare widens to include Ralphs, Food 4 Less

LA Times  

A California packing company has voluntarily recalled fruit sold at Trader Joe’s, Costco, Food 4 Less, Foods Co. and Ralphs stores due to the possible contamination of Listeria monocytogenes, CBS News reported. Wawona Packing Co. in Cutler, Calif., has recalled specific lots of whole white and yellow peaches, white and yellow nectarines, plums and pluots. The recall also applies to baked goods that were made using peaches, nectarines and plums from Wawona Packing Co. Ralphs and Food 4 Less also included a list of affected products online, including two-layer trays of red plums, two-pound bags of nectarines, two-pound bags of peaches and two-pound bags of plums, all with “sweet to eat” stickers purchased between June 1 and July 20. “By taking the precautionary step of recalling product, we will minimize even the slightest risk to public health, and that is our priority.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lists Listeria as a serious infection usually caused by consuming food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes bacteria.
