Fruit sold at Walmart, Sam's Club, Target, more

Peach Recall

SAN ANTONIO – Before you bite into that fresh, juicy peach, check to see if it’s part of an expanded recall.

Prima Wawona of Fresno, California, has recalled bagged and individual peaches sold at supermarkets because of a nationwide salmonella outbreak.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are investigating the outbreak that has sickened 68 people in nine states so far.

Initially, the California Peach company recalled bagged peaches sold from June 1 through Aug. 19 that were sold under various brand names, including Wawona, Prima and Organic Marketside.

Later, the recall included peaches sold loose or in bulk between June 1 and August 3.

While it is likely that those peaches may have already been consumed, they may still be in home freezers.

The recalled peaches were sold at various supermarkets nationwide, including Walmarts, Sam’s Clubs and Targets in Texas. H-E-B says its produce has not been impacted by the recall.

If you have peaches from Prima Wawona or do not know where they came from, the FDA urges you to throw them out. For more information on the recall, click here.
