SouthFresh Feeds has recalled approximately 197 tons of shrimp feed products because they were manufactured using an aquatic binder containing melamine. Melamine is a chemical substance that is not approved for use in animal or fish feeds. The recall includes various concentrations of shrimp feed and bulk products distributed in Alabama and Belize.
The use of melamine in animal feed is unapproved and may pose a health risk to the shrimp and potentially enter the food chain, although the FDA has classified this specific event as a low-risk (Class III) situation.
