Vinh Hoan USA, Inc. is recalling approximately 84,000 pounds of MEKONG MASTER Frozen Swai Fillets because they were imported without meeting federal inspection requirements. These imported fish products failed to comply with regulatory requirements concerning residue sampling and testing before entering U.S. commerce. The frozen fillets were produced between December 16, 2016, and January 7, 2017, and do not bear the USDA mark of inspection. Consumers should return the product to the place of purchase for a refund or throw it away.
The fish entered the United States without required residue sampling and testing, which means they were not verified to be safe from prohibited chemical residues or contaminants before being sold. While no illnesses have been reported, the lack of mandatory inspection poses a potential food safety risk.
