A California company has recalled peaches that could be contaminated with Listeria. Moonlight Companies recalled California-grown conventional yellow and white peaches that were sold at retail stores nationwide between Sept. 16 and Oct. 29, 2025, according to a company announcement with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The peaches were either sold as individual pieces of fruit bearing PLU stickers or as multi-packs. This recall does not include packages or PLU stickers with the words “Washington” and/or “Organic.” Moonlight said the recall was issued “because Listeria monocytogenes was identified in the packing facility environment." Listeria monocytogenes is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. It also can cause miscarriages and stillbirths in pregnant women. Healthy people may experience symptoms including high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea. The descriptions of the recalled fruit are: Moonlight yellow peaches - individual pieces, PLU sticker 4401 and 4044 Moonlight yellow peaches - multi-packs, UPC 810248031656 and 898429002091 Moonlight white peaches - individual pieces, PLU sticker 4401 and 4044 Moonlight white peaches - multi-packs, UPC 810248031632 and 898429002091 Moonlight white peppermint peaches - multi-packs, UPC 898429002664, 810248031632, 810248030871 and 810248031861 Kroger yellow peaches - multi-packs, UPC 11110 and 18174 All of the recalled fruit has the facility code P1.
