Cyclospora Recall Alerts for Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Cyclospora outbreaks linked to contaminated produce pose a serious health risk in Milwaukee and across Wisconsin. The CDC and FDA track Cyclospora-related recalls year-round, but by the time local news reports them, you may have already purchased affected items. Panko Alerts delivers same-day notifications directly to your phone the moment a recall is issued.

Cyclospora Outbreaks in Wisconsin & Milwaukee

Cyclospora (Cyclospora cayetanensis) is a parasite that causes severe gastrointestinal illness, typically transmitted through contaminated fresh produce like lettuce, spinach, berries, and herbs. Wisconsin regularly experiences Cyclospora-related recalls, with most incidents tied to imported produce from endemic regions. The CDC maintains an active surveillance network that identifies Cyclospora clusters and traces contamination sources to farms and distributors. Milwaukee residents are especially vulnerable during warm months (May–October) when fresh produce consumption peaks and international imports increase.

Most Commonly Recalled Products

Leafy greens—particularly spinach, lettuce, and arugula—account for the majority of Cyclospora recalls affecting Wisconsin. Berries (especially raspberries and blackberries), fresh herbs (cilantro and basil), and imported melons have also triggered recalls linked to Cyclospora contamination. The CDC and FDA trace these recalls to specific farms, distributors, and supply chains, often pulling products from retail shelves weeks after initial purchase. Pre-cut salad mixes and packaged vegetable blends pose extra risk because contamination is harder to detect before consumption.
