However, if you also love freeze-dried fruit and have bought it at Sam's Club, you'll want to check your pantry against a recent recall.

What Triggered the Freeze-Dried Fruit Recall

The freeze-dried fruit products are being recalled over potential Listeria contamination, according to the FDA. Listeria can cause "serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems." It can also cause pregnant women to miscarry.

The product was distributed to many states, including Texas.
