    A SOUTH Australian woman has died from hepatitis A after eating a frozen pomegranate product recalled from supermarket shelves last month.

    South Australian Health is reminding anyone who bought Creative Gourmet frozen pomegranate from Coles to throw it in the bin after the tragic death of the 64-year-old woman.

    The frozen pomegranate was recalled two months ago after NSW Health found a link between the fruit and a number of Hepatitis A cases.

    SA Health reminded the community on May 8, warning its residents the infection can take anywhere from 15 to 50 days to develop.

    In a statement, SA Health?s chief medical officer Paddy Phillips said he hoped there wouldn?t be any more people suffering the illness, considering the product was recalled two months ago.
