The FDA and CDC are investigating an outbreak of illnesses caused by Salmonella Javiana.

Traceback evidence indicates that fruit mix with cantaloupe, honeydew, pineapple, and grapes from Tailor Cut Produce of North Brunswick, New Jersey, is a potential source of this outbreak.

The firm recalled the fruit mix, called Fruit Luau, as well as cut honeydew, cut cantaloupe, and cut pineapple products on December 7.

Tailor Cut Produce reports that their products may be found in restaurants, banquet facilities, hotels, schools, long-term care facilities, and institutional food service establishments in Delaware, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.

The recalled products may have been distributed to vulnerable populations at nursing homes, schools, hospitals, and other facilities.

The recalled fruit products were distributed between November 15 and December 1, 2019.

Salmonella is a group of bacteria that can cause gastrointestinal illness and fever called salmonellosis.

Most people infected with Salmonella will begin to develop symptoms 12 to 72 hours after infection.

The illness usually lasts four to seven days, and most people recover without treatment.

Most people with salmonellosis develop diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps.

Children younger than five, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems are more vulnerable to infection.
