Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Grand BK Corporation is issuing a public health alert for Spicy Catfish Stew products imported from Korea. Korea is currently not eligible to export Siluriformes (catfish) products to the United States, meaning these items did not undergo required federal inspection. The frozen, ready-to-cook stew was sold in 2.42-lb plastic containers at retail locations and through online sales nationwide between September 2021 and May 2022.

Risk

These products were imported from a country and source ineligible to export Siluriformes to the U.S., bypasssing critical safety inspections. While no adverse reactions have been confirmed, the lack of inspection means the safety and processing standards of the fish cannot be verified.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your freezer for 2.42-lb. plastic containers labeled "SPICY CATFISH STEW" with "IMPORTED BY GRAND BK CORP." on the label. The labels are primarily written in the Korean language and do not have a USDA mark of inspection.
  2. Identify the product by the barcode 8 809990 242641 located on the top of the packaging label.
  3. Return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund, throw it away, or contact the manufacturer or supplier for further instructions.
  4. If you have health concerns or believe you have had a reaction to this product, contact your healthcare provider.
