Typhoid Fever in Fruit Smoothies and Shakes: Now You Tell Us?!

I am not making up the date on this CNN news item:

"Frozen mamey fruit pulp recalled in U.S."
the CNN Wire Staff, CNN (August 20, 2010)

"The U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned consumers on Friday not to eat frozen mamey fruit pulp -- sold under the La Nuestra and Goya brands -- after at least nine people in California and Nevada fell ill with typhoid fever.

"Both companies, which have voluntarily recalled the product, get their mamey fruit from a common supplier in Guatemala, the FDA said...."

Well, I suppose "better late than never."

This news is about a week old.
