RECALL: 28,000 cartons of bulk-packed cantaloupes

DFI Marketing is recalling approximately 28,000 cartons of bulk-packed cantaloupes as they may be contaminated with Salmonella The cantaloupes are packed in 6, 9, 12, 15, or 18 cantaloupes per carton.  All cantaloupes are packed in a DFI brand carton and the following is stamped in black on the carton “826 CALIFORNIA WESTSIDE.”

The cantaloupes were packed on August 26, 2012. The cantaloupes may have been distributed from August 27 to September 10, 2012 primarily to retail customers in the following states and one country: Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, New York, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Mexico. We believe, due to the perishable nature of cantaloupe, the majority of this recalled product is no longer in commerce.  MORE
