Tomatoes Pulled From Wal-Mart Shelves


The retailers Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club are pulling Santa Sweet brand grape tomatoes from store shelves as a result of pesticides investigations in Florida and North Carolina.

The tomatoes are not harmful to the consumer.

The investigations are looking into pesticides violations of the grower, Ag-Mart Produce, and whether produce field workers are at risk.

Wal-Mart officials say the product will remain off the shelves until the investigation is resolved.

The safety of Santa Sweet tomatoes is not in question.
