Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Southwind Foods LLC is recalling 11,081 cases across all products and brands of frozen raw and cooked shrimp sold under the Sand Bar, Great American, First Street, Best Yet, and Arctic Shores brands. The recall was initiated because the products were manufactured under insanitary conditions where they may have been contaminated with Cesium-137 (Cs-137). The affected shrimp was distributed in Alabama, Arizona, California, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Utah, Virginia, and Washington state.

Risk

Cesium-137 is a radioactive isotope. Consuming food contaminated with this substance can increase the risk of cancer. While no illnesses have been reported, the manufacturing conditions did not meet required safety standards.
