Whole cantaloupe 3ct and 6ct

FreshPoint Dallas recalled Whole cantaloupe 3ct and 6ct in a Class I action — the FDA's most serious tier, reserved for products with a reasonable probability of causing serious health consequences or death on Nov 17, 2023.

The recall was triggered by possible Salmonella contamination: "TruFresh in Nogales, AZ issued a voluntary recall of its Malichita, Mexico-sourced whole cantaloupe sold in the United States for potential Salmonella contamination." 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 "Institutions, medical facilities and direct food service accounts in Arkansas, Missouri, Mississippi, Kansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Dallas, TX. The recall covers 193 cases of 3CT cantaloupes, 445 cases of 6CT cantaloupes of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Dec 13, 2023), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved. The historical record remains useful for tracking a brand's recall pattern over time.
