Nationwide, there have been seven illnesses linked to the recalled strawberries including two hospitalizations, but none have been fatal according to the FDA.
Symptoms of hepatitis A include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and dark urine.
The strawberries were sold under a variety of store-brand names, including the Kirkland Signature brand sold by Costco and the Trader Joe's store brand.
Officials confirm the strawberries were distributed to stores in the Los Angeles area.
