“Gracie's Pointe Frozen Raw Shrimp Recall: Import Alert Released.” GovInfoNow, updated October 4, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/15147-gracie-s-pointe-frozen-raw-shrimp-recall-import-alert-released. Based on FDA recall #F-0070-2021 (https://api.fda.gov/food/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22F-0070-2021%22&limit=1).

Why it’s dangerous

The shrimp were released through an import alert that was inadvertently distributed, meaning they may not have been properly inspected or regulated before reaching consumers. This could lead to potential safety issues if the shrimp are not handled or stored correctly.

Who’s affected

Consumers who purchased Gracie's Pointe frozen raw shrimp with the listed UPC codes or traceability codes are affected. Those who bought shrimp from stores that received the products in the specified timeframes are at higher risk.

How to tell if you have this one

Check the UPC code on the product label. Affected items include specific counts per pound (e.g., 8/12 Count Per Pound Tail On) with UPCs like 849558095034 or traceability codes such as AP000014/001.
