The Wawona Packaging Company is voluntarily recalling certain lots of peaches, plums, nectarines, and pluots packaged between June 1 through July 12 due to a possible listeria monocytogenes contamination.
These lots were distributed to Costco, Trader Joe’s, Walmart & Sam’s Club locations throughout the country.
To find out if a lot of fruit that you have purchased could have been contaminated visit Wawonapacking.com.
Listeria monocytogenes is a bacteria that can cause Listeriosis. Pregnant women, infants, older adults and people with a weakened immune system are particularly at risk for a more serious infection.

Do you know where to find the lot # on the box? I’m looking all over for it and can’t find it. I happened to buy Costco peaches this week that we haven’t eaten yet…

They were sold at Smith’s as well…..I received a voicemail from Smiths today since I made a purchase

I got the same call from Smiths. But if I did purchase fruit from that time frame it is gone & eaten. What happens now?

We ate peaches from Walmart and my little guy had a bad tummy ache and threw up a few times…he was miserable! Now I wonder if they came from the peaches. No one else in the family got sick.

Did they have to be packaged? I bought regular peaches, so it wouldn’t have a batch #. Are those included in the recall?

Here’s a clip from an article with details:
“Retail cartons may have the brand names Wawona, Sweet 2 Eat or Harvest Sweet, it said. There have been no reported illnesses from the products. The products were packaged between June 1 and July 12. A full list of the products can be found online.”

I got the msg from Smiths too and they said it’s all the Sweet 2 Eat labeled fruits that were recalled. Dug in our garbage and ours weren’t Sweet 2 Eat and I was relieved because we ate all our nectarines.

I bought some Peaches and nectarines from WinCo foods in Salem, ore on 7/22/2014. I do have a photo of the Barcode sticker. Does anyone have any info on weather they are ok to eat. Thanks

The companies web site is crashing. You can’t view any of the recall numbers. I recently bought peaches at Tom Thumb in Texas and have had bad stomach problems since. I hope it’s not from these peaches. I have one left over, and I really wanted to eat it. Man, it smells so good. Should I eat it?
