Liberty Fruit Company issued a Salmonella recall for pre-cut cantaloupe sold under the brand name Carol’s Cuts. Health officials warn consumers who purchased the fruit against eating it because Salmonella food poisoning can lead to serious illness. People in high-risk groups, including children, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems, may experience severe illness and complications.
The FDA identified the risk for Salmonella contamination of the cantaloupe after a routine collection sample and analysis resulted in a positive Salmonella test. As of March 29, 2022, no illnesses have been reported in connection with the recall.
