Food Recall Check
Class II · Moderate risk Terminated Initiated Aug 1, 2013 (13 years ago)

Breaded frozen shrimp packaged in plastic bags labeled in part recall

Recalled by Gourmet Express Marketing, Inc. · Addison, IL, United States

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

Packages of breaded shrimp failed to declare shellfish (shrimp) and wheat allergens.

Undeclared allergens: Wheat Shellfish

For someone with a food allergy the label is the only protection. An undeclared allergen can trigger a severe reaction even in a trace amount, which is why most of these recalls are Class I. All undeclared allergens recalls.

What was recalled

Breaded, frozen shrimp packaged in plastic bags labeled in part: BREADED SHRIMP; NET WEIGHT; 2.0 LBS or 3 LBS

Quantity: 856 lbs in 2 and 3 lbs units

Food: Seafood & fish Bread & bakery

Check the codes, then return or discard. Class II means eating it may cause temporary or reversible health problems. If your package matches the recalled codes, do not eat it - return it to the store or throw it away. The risk from an undeclared allergen is to people allergic to wheat, shellfish; for anyone else the product is generally not a safety concern. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
