What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The FDA issued a recall notice on October 2 for six lots of three products from a Chilean grower, which were sold at Walmart and Trader Joe’s. These products were linked to an E. coli O145:H28 outbreak affecting 17 people in Florida and Georgia between May 11 and August 2, 2026. Although the CDC declared the outbreak over on September 21, the recall expanded because the recalled bags carry best-by dates running to June 2028.
