WinCo Foods has issued a recall for 12-ounce bags of its house-label frozen red raspberries due to potential contamination with Norovirus.

The recall, which was issued Friday, affects raspberries manufactured by Rader Farms in Bellingham, Washington. WinCo has removed all potentially affected products from store shelves. The raspberries were distributed to WinCo stores in Arizona, California, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oklahoma, Oregon, Washington, Texas, and Utah.

Norovirus is highly contagious, and common symptoms are vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps, and watery, non-bloody diarrhea. It can also cause fever, myalgia and malaise, and headaches. Most symptoms end within 48 hours, though the elderly, young children and people with compromised immune systems can experience prolonged illness and more-severe symptoms.

Here are details about the recalled raspberries:
