AKT Trading Inc. is recalling approximately 1,200 units of Choshiya brand Menma Ajitsuke Prepared Bamboo Shoots (8.8 oz) because the packaging does not include the required "Keep Refrigerated" label. These bamboo shoots are not shelf-stable and require refrigeration to remain safe for consumption. The affected products have an expiration date of January 29, 2025, and were sold at retail locations throughout Southern California. No illnesses or injuries have been reported to date.
Because the package is missing the "Keep Refrigerated" instruction, consumers may store the product at room temperature. This can allow for the growth of harmful bacteria, as the product is not formulated to be shelf-stable.
You have 2 options:
Manufactured by Choshiya Honten CO., LTD. Hamamatsu 431-1103 Japan; 60 units per case; Recall #: F-0554-2025.
