Baltimore, MD – July 28, 2023 –  Packages of Sunny Fruit Organic Figs, commonly sold at Costco, bearing a STAR-K symbol, have been found to have a high rate of infestation. Corrective action is being taken.

STAR-K recommends checking all figs, even those bearing a reliable certification.

TO PROPERLY CHECK FIGS: open each fig and carefully inspect the interior for any insects like wasps, beetles or worms. If any are found, discard the entire fruit.
