“FSIS Public Health Alert: Ineligible Frozen Siluriformes Products from China.” GovInfoNow, updated October 6, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/1274952-fsis-public-health-alert-ineligible-frozen-siluriformes-products-from-china. Based on USDA FSIS recall #PHA-03212024-01 (https://www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls-alerts/fsis-issues-public-health-alert-ineligible-frozen-siluriformes-products-imported).
Why it’s dangerous
These products were not certified by Chinese authorities for export to the U.S., lack required labeling with producing establishment information, and were not re-inspected by FSIS before entering U.S. markets. This makes them ineligible for import and potentially unsafe for consumption.
Who’s affected
Consumers who purchased frozen Siluriformes products (like striped pangasius maws) in New York, Oklahoma, and Pennsylvania. Retailers who bought these products should not sell them.
How to tell if you have this one
Look for 12-oz. plastic packages labeled 'FROZEN STRIPED PANGASIUS MAWS' in plain white shipping cartons with no labels or markings. These products were shipped to retail and wholesale locations in New York, Oklahoma, and Pennsylvania.
