Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Truong Phu Xanh Co. is recalling over 915,000 pounds of various frozen Yellowfin Tuna products imported from Vietnam due to elevated histamine levels. The affected tuna was sold under several brands, including Tidal Seafood, Sea Mart, Pacifica Frozen Seafoods, J Deluca Fish Company, Full Moon Fish, Tuna King, and MiCal Seafood, with various production dates throughout 2019. Consumers should check their freezers for specific cuts like loins, steaks, saku, and cubes with the identified lot codes and expiration dates ranging from early to mid-2021.

Risk

Consuming tuna with elevated histamine levels can cause Scombroid poisoning, a type of food poisoning that occurs when fish is not properly chilled. Symptoms typically include a tingling or burning sensation in the mouth, facial swelling, rash, hives, itchy skin, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your freezer for any frozen Yellowfin Tuna products from the following brands: Tidal Seafood, Sea Mart, Pacifica Frozen Seafoods, J Deluca Fish Company, Full Moon Fish, Tuna King, or MiCal Seafood.
  2. Verify the lot numbers and expiration dates against the affected list; specifically look for Tidal Seafood Lot 1008 (Exp 6/25/2021), Sea Mart lots ending in 022, 159, or 189, and other brands with 2021 expiration dates.
  3. If you identify an affected product, do not consume it; histamine is not destroyed by cooking or freezing.
  4. Contact the place of purchase or the manufacturer, Truong Phu Xanh Co., regarding the disposal or return of the product.
  5. For additional questions or to report an illness, contact the FDA Consumer Complaint hotline at 1-888-723-3332 (1-888-SAFEFDA).
