Huge Shrimp Recall from Target, Whole Foods, Meijer and More!

A recall on pre-cooked frozen shrimp, possibly tainted with salmonella, has expanded.

As of August 13, the Food and Drug Administration is reporting that Avanti Frozen Foods Pvt. Ltd. has agreed to recall additional package sizes and brands of the frozen cooked, peeled, deveined, shrimp, some of which is sold with cocktail sauce.

The Food and Drug Administration released the announcement from Avanti Frozen Foods Pvt. Ltd Friday, which said in part that the company “is voluntarily expanding a prior recall issued on June 25, 2021 to include certain consignments of various sizes of frozen cooked, peeled, deveined, shrimp (with some packaged with cocktail sauce) sold in various unit sizes, because it has the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.”

There is concern that consumers may have the frozen shrimp in their homes because of their long shelf life. Some of the recalled shrimp has use-by dates stretching into 2023. The frozen shrimp products were distributed nationwide from November 2020 to May 2021, according to the company’s recall notice posted by the FDA.

“There have been 9 reports of Salmonella-related illness to date associated with these cooked shrimp distributions,” the expanded recall notice says.

Salmonella is bacteria that can pose serious health concerns and cause food poisoning and other diseases in both people and animals. According to the FDA, symptoms of salmonella infection may include abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever, nausea and vomiting. Salmonella infections can in some rare cases also lead to severe illness, such as arthritis, endocarditis (inflammation of the heart) or aneurysms (infections of arteries).

Although many people with salmonella infections can recover within a week, anyone with severe symptoms should seek medical treatment as bacterial spread can be fatal. Those most at risk of more serious salmonella infections include young children under 5, pregnant people, immunocompromised people and older adults.

The recall affects shrimp products sold in Target, Whole Foods, Food Lion, Miejer and more. Please look at your packages for these labels:
