Recalled Fruit
Several varieties of fresh fruit, which were sold at retail stores like Walmart and ALDI, have been recalled after random sampling revealed some of the produce contained the bacteria listeria.
The fruit was distributed in 18 states nationwide at both small and large stores, including ALDI, Costco and Walmart.
The recalled peaches and nectarines were sold as a bulk produce item with stickers that listed the country of origin as Chile and had PLU numbers of 4044, 3035 or 4378.
