On November 27, 2024, the FDA reported that SunFed Produce, LLC (Rio Rico AZ) recalled all sizes of whole fresh American cucumbers packaged in bulk cardboard containers labeled with the “SunFed” label or in a generic white box or black plastic crate with a sticker that provides the implicated grower’s name, “Agrotato, S.A. de C.V..” The recalled cucumbers were sold between October 12, 2024, and November 26, 2024, and are being recalled because they could potentially be contaminated with Salmonella. The whole fresh American cucumbers were sold by SunFed and other importers and shipped to customers located in the states of Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, and Wisconsin and the Canadian provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Calgary, Saskatchewan, & Ontario. The cucumbers would have reached consumers through food service and retail outlets that may be located in states other than those listed above. SunFed initiated this recall after the FDA notified them that the cucumbers were associated with reported salmonellosis illnesses between October 12 – November 15, 2024. SunFed also contacted its direct buyers to advise them of the recall. No other products sold by or farms supplying to SunFed are implicated in this recall. @ https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts/sunfed-produce-llc-recalls-whole-fresh-american-cucumbers-because-possible-health-risks-due
