Costco has issued a recall of its frozen berry mixture amid fears the products may be contaminated with hepatitis A, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced Wednesday. Its recall comes just days after Kroger grocery stores recalled its similar Private Selection Triple Berry Medley. So far, the potentially affected berries all came from manufacturer Townsend Farms, which informed Costco and Kroger its blackberries - used in both blends - may have been exposed to hepatitis A. The FDA, Kroger and Costco have not released any specifics about the source of their hepatitis A concerns, and no illnesses have been confirmed. Kroger has recalled both its Private Selection Frozen Triple Berry Medley, sold both in 16oz and 48oz packages, as well as its Private Selection Frozen Blackberries, sold in 16oz bags.
