Worcester, Massachusetts, United States
The FSIS issued a public health alert for approximately 165 pounds of imported frozen Siluriformes products because they were imported from Brazil, a country ineligible to export Siluriformes products to the United States. These products were imported by EB Express Provisions Inc. (EB), and they were shipped to retail locations in Massachusetts.The frozen Siluriformes products subject to the public health alert are:
- 13-14 lbs. cases containing “GUTTED FROZEN FISH SCIENTIFIC NAME: Hypostomus” with a production date of 23/04/2021 represented on the label. The whole frozen fish were removed from the cases and sold individually, by weight, in plastic bags at Mass. Mineirao Markets.
The product is identified with an ineligible establishment number (S.I.F. 188) on its packaging, and it does not bear a USDA mark of inspection.
A recall was not recommended because it is believed that the affected products are no longer available to be purchased by consumers. FSIS is concerned that some products may be in consumers’ refrigerators. Consumers are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
