Company announcement
HAIFA SMOKED FISH is recalling approximately 560 lbs. of Cold Smoked Sprats due to potential contamination with Clostridium botulinum.
The product was distributed in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania through retail stores.
No illnesses have been reported to date.
Consumers are warned not to use the product even if it does not look or smell spoiled.
