Ocean Group Inc. is recalling approximately 5,925.91 pounds of various raw salmon products because they may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. The recall includes several brands such as Bakkafrost, Hiddenfjord, and other raw salmon sourced from Norway and Canada. This issue was discovered after FDA testing of environmental samples from the processing facility's cutting boards and floor drains yielded positive results for the bacteria. No illnesses or injuries have been reported to date, and consumers should return the salmon for a refund or discard it.
The product may contain Listeria monocytogenes, a pathogen that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
