The affected items include Moonlight Yellow Peaches, Moonlight White Peaches, Moonlight White Peaches ("Peppermint Peach"), and Kroger Yellow Peaches. They were distributed from facility code P1, covering multiple lot codes such as 01PCLC, 03PCAF, 106PCLF, 113PCAF, 129PCLF, 142PCLF, and 150PCLF.

According to the company, the recall was initiated after Listeria monocytogenes was detected in the packing facility environment. Listeria can cause serious infections, particularly among young children, the elderly, and individuals with weakened immune systems. In healthy individuals, symptoms may include fever, headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Infection can also cause miscarriages or stillbirths in pregnant women.
