The recall was triggered by possible Salmonella contamination: "GM Produce Sales is voluntarily recalling 4994 cartons of Marathon Brand mangos packed at Agricola Daniella, in Los Mochis, Sinaloa, because it has the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella gaminara, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella" Salmonella is one of the most common causes of U.S. foodborne illness, with symptoms that typically appear within six hours to six days of exposure.

The product reached multiple states, recorded by the FDA as "AZ, GA, IL, MN, NY, and TX." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Hidalgo, TX. The recall covers 4994 CARTONS of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Oct 17, 2012), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved.
