August 30, 2012 5:08 PM 
I love mangoes. Mangoes tainted with Salmonella, however, not so much. According to The Denver Channel mangoes sold in Colorado are being recalled due to a Salmonella risk. Read on to find what stores sold the recalled fruit.
Daniella brand mangoes sold at Colorado Costco, Kroger (King Soopers) and some Whole Foods locations between July 12th and August 29th could be affected.
The products being recalled in Colorado are individual mangoes that can be identified by the Daniella brand stickers and one of the following PLU numbers: 3114, 4051, 4311, 4584 or 4959.
Consumers who have purchased the recalled mangoes are advised not to eat them and to discard them.
Purchasers may contact Splendid Products for further information at 866-918-8758 Monday through Friday, 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. MDT.
Thankfully, no illnesses due to the fruit have been reported in Colorado yet.
You do not want to get sick from Salmonella, according to the CDC,
Most persons infected with Salmonella develop diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps 12 to 72 hours after infection. The illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days, and most persons recover without treatment. However, in some persons, the diarrhea may be so severe that the patient needs to be hospitalized. In these patients, the Salmonella infection may spread from the intestines to the blood stream, and then to other body sites and can cause death unless the person is treated promptly with antibiotics. The elderly, infants, and those with impaired immune systems are more likely to have a severe illness.
