(KNSI) — Fruit blends sold at Walmart are under recall due to a possible Hepatitis A contamination.
Willamette Valley Fruit Company is voluntarily pulling select packages of frozen strawberries and frozen fruit blends containing frozen strawberries off store shelves. They are sold under Walmart’s Great Value label and include sliced strawberries, mixed fruit containing strawberries and its antioxidant blend. They were sold in Minnesota’s stores between January 24th and June 8th, 2023.
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. Illness generally occurs within 15 to 50 days of exposure and includes fatigue, abdominal pain, jaundice, abnormal liver tests, dark urine and pale stool.
