A major grocery chain wants customers to do more than just check their freezers for packages of blueberries that have been linked to a dozen E. coli cases. It advises shoppers to get rid of any blueberries made by that producer and purchased from its stores before this weekend.\u00a0<\/p>

Big picture view:<\/p>

The supermarket giant Publix announced Friday the recall of a single lot of 10 oz. packages of frozen GreenWise Organic IQF blueberries. The affected products all have the lot code of 60401 and a Best By Date of February 9, 2028.<\/p>

The blueberries, which are sold under the grocer\u2019s specialty, private-label brand, were sold across all states where Publix has stores, including Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia.\u00a0<\/p>

What they’re saying:<\/p>

While the statement qualified that no other lot codes were included in the recall, it went on to add that “Publix is advising customers return or discard any frozen GreenWise blueberries products with a purchase date of 7\/3\/2026 or before.”<\/p>
