Screen shot 2010-10-09 at 5_30_04 PM(1).pngD & M Smoked Fish, Inc., which does business as Haifa Smoked Fish, announced this week that the company was recalling specific lots of its Haifa Smoked Fish brand products due to potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes.

The recalled products, which were sold in vacuum-packed plastic packaging, were sold between Aug. 10, 2010 and Sept. 3, 2010 to retailers and distributors in greater New York, New Jersey, and areas of Illinois. A sample of fish tested by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration revealed the contamination, which led to enforcement of a previous court order requiring production and distribution of the products to cease.

According to a company press release, the recalled Haifa Smoked Fish products were air-packed in bulk boxes and vacuum-packed in various sized plastic packages including 4 oz., 8 oz., 16 oz., and random weight sizes. Lot numbers appear on the bottom of the gold boards, labels, and/or on bulk boxes.

The recalled lot numbers are: 220; 221; 222; 223; 224; 225; 227; 228; 229; 230; 231; 232; 234; 235; 236; 237; 238; 239; 241; 242; 243 & 244.
