Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Starway International Group, LLC is recalling approximately 9,513 pounds of frozen Siluriformes (fish) ball products. These products were imported from an establishment in Vietnam that is not eligible to export this type of fish to the United States. The recall includes 16-ounce and 2-kilogram packages of both White Fish Balls and Fried Fish Balls. Consumers should return these products to the place of purchase for a full refund or throw them away.

Risk

The fish balls were produced in a facility that has not been approved to export Siluriformes fish to the U.S., meaning they did not undergo necessary safety inspections. This violation poses a potential health risk as the product's safety and processing standards cannot be verified.
