(Food and Drug Administration / Fox News) "The recalled mangoes and the sampled mangoes share the same source, therefore Panorama Produce has initiated a recall," the notice said.

The safety alert was issued after FDA testing reportedly detected salmonella in mangoes grown on the same farm as the recalled fruit. No illnesses have been reported in connection with the recalled mangoes.
