In a time where local news media coverage seems to be disappearing, your contribution is more important than ever. While our in-depth articles are for supporting members only, we won’t put our core news content behind a paywall, because we believe access to news should be democratized, instead of access for only those who can afford it.
But keeping the lights on and taking the fight to local accountability takes resources. Your monthly subscription directly funds our public records requests, website hosting, and time spent analyzing local government and events so you don’t have to.
We are the only newsroom in Washington County with facts-first focus, locally owned, independent, while keeping our core news content free. Will you help us keep it that way?
Listeria monocytogenes is a dangerous bacterium that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections, particularly in young children, the elderly, and individuals with weakened immune systems. While healthy individuals may experience short-term symptoms such as fever, headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, the bacteria pose significant risks to pregnant women, potentially leading to miscarriages and stillbirths. No illnesses have been reported in connection with this recall to date.
The presence of Listeria monocytogenes was identified through sampling conducted by food inspectors from the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets. Subsequent laboratory analysis confirmed the contamination in the affected “Cold Smoked Salmon” and “Cold Smoked Seabass” products. The products are characterized by vacuum packaging on a paperboard with a flexible plastic outer layer.
Consumers who have purchased the recalled Haifa “Cold Smoked Salmon” or “Cold Smoked Seabass” are strongly advised to return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund. For any questions or further information regarding this recall, consumers can contact Haifa Smoked Fish directly at 718-523-8899. The FDA has published this company announcement as a public service and does not endorse the recalled products or the company.
