Trufresh expands cantaloupe recall
Sofia Produce LLC, doing business as Trufresh, expanded its recall to include additional order numbers of fresh cantaloupe because of possible health risks due to Salmonella.
The current recall is of all sizes of fresh cantaloupes packaged in cardboard containers labeled with the “Malichita” label distributed between Oct. 16 and Oct. 23 because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.
The cantaloupes were distributed directly to the following states: Arizona, California. Maryland, New Jersey, Tennessee, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Texas and Florida as well as Canada. The cantaloupes would have reached consumers through retail produce markets which may be located in states other than those listed above.

Trufresh said it is contacting each of the individual buyers under the foregoing orders to advise them of the recall. If the buyers associated with the sales order numbers below have not already been contacted by Trufresh, they should contact the company.
