Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Approximately 1,616 units of various cold smoked salmon products, including brands Aqua Nova, Tony's Smoke House and Cannery, and North Coast, are being recalled due to the potential presence of Listeria monocytogenes. These products were distributed across Alaska, California, Oregon, and Washington in various sizes ranging from 3-ounce packages to 3.5-pound sides. Consumers who have purchased these items should not consume them, as Listeria can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.

Risk

The product may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, a pathogen that can cause listeriosis, leading to high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. In pregnant women, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths.
