FDA issues recall for frozen shrimp that may be contaminated with cesium-137

Direct Source Seafood LLC, Bellevue, WA, is recalling approximately 83,800 bags of frozen raw shrimp, imported from Indonesia, sold under the Market 32 and Waterfront Bistro brands.

The FDA has announced a recall of frozen raw shrimp due to potential exposure to the radioactive isotope cesium-137.

The FDA says about 83,800 bags of frozen raw shrimp imported from Indonesia are being recalled after the products may have been prepared, packed, or held under conditions that could have exposed them to very low levels of cesium-137.

The recall affects shrimp distributed by Direct Source Seafood LLC and sold under the Market 32 and Waterfront Bistro brands. The shrimp was sold at Price Chopper, Jewel-Osco, Albertsons, Safeway, Lucky, and other supermarkets across multiple states including Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Colorado, Iowa, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Montana, North Dakota, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Wyoming, according to the recall notice.
