Don’t eat these peaches or peach products: Listeria contamination fears spark nationwide recalls

A second food recall has been initiated after a California-based fruit supplier discovered that some of its yellow and white peaches might be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, which can cause potentially deadly infections. Here’s the latest and what to know:

What’s happened?

On October 29, Moonlight Companies voluntarily recalled “California-grown conventional” yellow and white peaches due to a risk of contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. Some items were sold under the Kroger name, the company said in its announcement.

Listeria was found in the packing facility. To date, no illnesses have been reported. However, the impacted fruit was sold at retail stores across the country.

A day later, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published the recall notice on its website.
