Wholesale Produce Supply Recalls Fresh-Cut Cantaloupe Over Possible Listeria

Routine sampling by the Minneapolis supplier suggested contamination, triggering a voluntary recall with FDA listing product codes for consumers to check.

Overview

  • The recall covers more than two dozen fresh-cut and processed cantaloupe items sold under the Harvest Cuts and Fresh & Finest brands in plastic clamshells, including mixed-fruit products.
  • Products were supplied to distributors in North Dakota, Wisconsin and Nebraska, with the possibility of further distribution to additional states and unnamed grocery retailers.
  • No illnesses have been reported to date, and the potential contamination was identified through the company’s routine testing program.
  • Wholesale Produce Supply has suspended production and distribution of the affected lots as it investigates the source of the issue.
  • Consumers are advised not to eat the recalled items, to return them for a refund, and to verify affected UPCs and lot numbers on the FDA website, noting higher risk for pregnant people, older adults and those with weakened immune systems.
