Cantaloupes sold in grocery stores in five states are being recalled due to potential salmonella contamination, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Eagle Produce LLC of Scottsdale, Arizona initiated a recall of 224 cases of whole cantaloupe , the FDA posted online Friday.
The recall comes on the heels of a salmonella outbreak last year linked to cantaloupe that left at least a half dozen people dead and sickened hundreds across the U.S and Canada, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention previously reported.
The latest recall is the result of routine sample testing conducted by state health officials in Michigan who found Salmonella in some cantaloupe sold at various retail distributors.
As of late last week, no illness connected to the recall had been reported to the FDA.
