Andrew Williamson Fresh Produce says that it's recalling 1 lot of grape tomatoes after USDA inspectors in Michigan performed what apparently turned out to be a positive test for Salmonella.  The company says that it's working with health officials on this recall and stresses that no actual illnesses have been reported.

In a press releases issued last evening the company says that 2 brands are affected by this recall:

  • Limited Edition®
  • Fresh & Easy
The company says to look for 10.5 ounce "clamshell" packages with UPCs of 033383655925 on them and 7 ounce "clamshells" with the bar code 20025465.  These tomatoes were sent, Andrew Williamson says, to 18 states and 2 Canadian provinces.
