Cold Smoked Capelin recalled over Clostridium botulinum concerns
North Fish USA Inc of Hallandale, FL is recalling imported 9-ounce packages of “Cold Smoked Capelin,” because the product was found to be over 5” in length and uneviscerated, as such, it has the potential to be contaminated with Clostridium botulinum.
The potential for contamination was noted by Patriot Foods after routine inspection by New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets Foods Inspectors and subsequent analysis by Food Laboratory staff.
The sale of uneviscerated fish over 5” in length may contain Clostridium botulinum spores as they are more likely to be concentrated in the viscera than any other portion of the fish. Botulism, a potentially fatal form of food poisoning, can cause the following symptoms: general weakness, dizziness, double-vision and trouble with speaking or swallowing. Difficulty in breathing, weakness of other muscles, abdominal distension and constipation may also be common symptoms. People experiencing these problems should seek immediate medical attention.
The recalled product was distributed in New York and Georgia to be distributed further to retail stores on the East Coast.
Recalled product:
- The product comes in a 9 ounce, plastic package marked with UPC code 4811527003360
- Best before date 07.13.2024 and 01.05.2025 stamped in the back of the package
As of the posting of this recall, no illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this problem.
Consumers are warned not to use the product even if it does not look or smell spoiled. Consumers who have purchased imported 9-ounce packages of North Fish USA “Cold Smoked Capelin” are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
