Frozen berries, including strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries, seem like a safe choice, but they have been repeatedly recalled due to Hepatitis A and norovirus contamination. Unlike bacteria, which can often be killed through cooking, these viruses persist even in freezing temperatures. Many recalls have been linked to unsanitary handling during harvesting or processing. To reduce your risk, consider washing berries thoroughly or using them in cooked dishes rather than consuming them raw.
