Cyclospora Recall Alerts for Austin, Texas
Cyclospora outbreaks in Texas occur seasonally, typically peaking in summer months when contaminated imported produce reaches local markets.

Panko Alerts delivers same-day notifications directly to your phone whenever the FDA, FSIS, or CDC issues recalls affecting your area.
Cyclospora Recalls in Texas: What You Need to Know
Texas experiences Cyclospora-related produce recalls multiple times annually, with the majority occurring June through September. The CDC tracks Cyclospora cayetanensis outbreaks across state lines, and Texas consistently ranks among affected regions due to its high volume of fresh produce imports. Cyclospora causes cyclosporiasis, a parasitic intestinal infection with symptoms including severe watery diarrhea, nausea, and fatigue that can persist for weeks. Recent outbreak investigations by Texas Department of State Health Services and CDC have traced contamination to imported raspberries, cilantro, and mixed salad greens sold in Austin-area grocers and restaurants.
High-Risk Products Commonly Recalled
Fresh berries—particularly raspberries and blackberries—account for the highest number of Cyclospora recalls affecting Texas. Cilantro, arugula, and pre-packaged salad mixes are also frequent culprits, as these products often originate from regions with inadequate water sanitation. Frozen berries distributed to institutional food service rarely trigger recalls compared to fresh produce. The FDA's import surveillance programs monitor produce from endemic areas in Central and South America, but contamination can still reach Austin retailers before detection occurs.
