Company recalls frozen fruit sold nationwide due to Hepatitis A risk

Details: On Friday, the Food and Drug Administration shared an announcement from the Scenic Fruit Company in Gresham, Oregon, saying it had stopped producing and distributing the fruit.

• "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 announcement says.
• Trader Joe's said in a statement Friday that "no illnesses have been reported to date, and all potentially affected product has been removed from sale and destroyed."
• A full list of the recalled products can be found on the FDA website.

Threat level: As of Mar. 13, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention had received five reports of Hepatitis A cases from the state of Washington.

• Two people were hospitalized and no deaths have been reported.
• Evidence has pointed to frozen organic strawberries as the likely source of the outbreak, per the CDC.
• Another company, California Splendor, Inc., has also issued a recall for frozen organic strawberries sold at some Costco stores on the West Coast.
