Frutas y Hortalizas del Sur S.A. has expanded a recall of its frozen berries due to potential E. coli contamination across more than 30 states, affecting both Walmart’s Great Value brand and Trader Joe’s products. The recalled items include various sizes and types of blueberries and mixed berry blends sold under different lot codes and best-by dates between January and February 2028. Shoppers are advised to check their freezers immediately and discard or return the affected products if found, as E. coli can cause serious health issues including bloody diarrhea and potential hospitalization for high-risk groups.

Story summary
In July 2026, Frutas y Hortalizas del Sur S.A. issued an initial recall of its organic blueberries and berry blends due to potential E. coli contamination at Publix stores in eight states. The recall was expanded in September 2026 to include more products sold at Walmart and Trader Joe’s, affecting 30 states, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia. Consumers are advised to check their freezers for affected items from both retailers; Walmart's Great Value frozen berry blends were distributed to select stores in 30 states, while Trader Joe’s products covered 26 states plus D.C. The FDA recommends discarding or returning any recalled berries as they could pose serious health risks, including kidney problems requiring hospitalization.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
