Frozen berries packaged under Walmart’s Great Value brand and Save A Lot’s Tipton Grove brand are the latest products to be recalled because of the risk of norovirus contamination.
Some recent frozen berry recalls involving norovirus have named Townsend Farms as the manufacturer, but the notice for the Great Value and Tipton Grove berry products do not reference the Washington frozen food company.
“Alma Pak of Alma, GA, is recalling specific lots of product containing frozen blackberries (noted in chart) due to the potential of being contaminated with Norovirus,” according to the Alma Pak recall notice posted by the Food and Drug Administration.
“FDA testing of frozen blackberries was reported to have tested positive for Norovirus. Norovirus is a highly contagious virus.”
