An October 2 expansion identifies additional frozen organic berry lots over possible E. coli contamination, including distribution in Florida.

What the record says

The company’s FDA-posted announcement expands earlier recalls because of potential E. coli O145:H28 contamination. It identifies Great Value Organic Triple Berry Blend 10-ounce lots 6 031 01 and 6 041 01, and Organic Blueberries 10-ounce lots 6 019 01, 6 040 01 and 6 163 01.

It also identifies Trader Joe’s Organic Mixed Berry Blend 12-ounce lot 6 051 01. The notice lists Florida among the states receiving affected products for both brands.

Practical next step

Match the brand, package size and lot code against the official notice, including its best-before information. The company instructs owners of affected lots not to eat them and to discard them or return them to Walmart or Trader Joe’s for a refund.

Limits and what is not established

Potential contamination is the stated reason; this report does not establish contamination of every package or of all berries from those brands. FDA posts the company announcement as a public service, not a product endorsement.
