MAMTAKIM recalls 20-pack frozen dried salted smelts due to potential Clostridium botulinum contamination in uneviscerated fish. Consumers should check product codes and follow official guidance.
Clostridium botulinum (uneviscerated fish)
MAMTAKIM is recalling 20-packs of frozen dried salted smelts because they may contain Clostridium botulinum, a botulism-causing bacteria found in uneviscerated fish. This poses a serious risk of food poisoning and requires immediate action to avoid illness.
Clostridium botulinum bacteria can grow in uneviscerated fish, leading to botulism, a serious illness that can cause paralysis and even death if not treated promptly. The product was not properly processed to eliminate this risk.
Anyone who owns or purchased these frozen smelts from stores. People with weakened immune systems are at higher risk of severe illness.
Check for product code LL0320 or bar code 0754684898995 on the vacuum-packed smelts. The product is sold in 20 packages per case, frozen, and requires refrigeration after opening.
Immediately discard the recalled smelts if you have them.

Look for product code LL0320 or bar code 0754684898995 on the vacuum-packed smelts.
