Nationwide Fish Recall Prompts Warning to Customers

Summary

New Hoque & Sons Inc. is recalling its "Dry Ghoinnya Fish" because it wasn't properly eviscerated, which means its internal organs weren't removed. This fish was sold nationwide and could potentially cause botulism, a serious illness, according to the FDA.

Key Facts

  • The "Dry Ghoinnya Fish" recall is due to the product not being eviscerated, meaning it still has internal organs.
  • The product could cause botulism poisoning, which has symptoms like blurred vision and trouble speaking.
  • The fish packages were distributed to stores across the U.S. and have an expiration date of May 19, 2025.
  • Selling uneviscerated fish is not allowed in New York State because it can increase the risk of botulism.
  • No illnesses linked to this recalled product have been reported so far.
  • Customers should return the fish to the store for a refund.
  • Most product recalls in the U.S. are voluntary, and when companies announce a recall, the FDA helps share the information.
  • Customers with questions can contact New Hoque & Sons Inc. via phone, and further information is available on the FDA's website.
