“Consumers, restaurants, and retailers should not sell, serve, or eat any fresh organic strawberries branded as FreshKampo or HEB if purchased between March 5, 2022, and April 25, 2022,” the FDA wrote in a statement published Saturday.
The illness can linger for several weeks and, in rare cases, can cause liver failure and death — although that is more common in people with liver disease or those older than 50, the CDC says.
The FDA said that the investigation into the infected strawberries was ongoing and that more products may be included as part of the advisory. FreshKampo and HEB Grocery Co., based in Texas, could not be immediately reached for comment early Monday.According to the FDA, shellfish, raw vegetables and fruit are among the food items most frequently cited as potential foodborne sources of hepatitis A in the United States.
Fruit from FreshKampo is sold in the Middle East and Europe, as well, according to the company’s website. HEB, in a statement on its website announcing the recall, said it has not received or sold organic strawberries from the supplier under investigation since April 16 — but that anyone who has purchased organic strawberries during the FDA’s review period should throw them away or return them to the place of purchase.
“All strawberries sold at H-E-B are safe,” the statement said, noting that “no illnesses from strawberries related to the FDA investigation have been reported at H-E-B or in Texas.”
