HOUSTON – Shrimp sold at retailers like Costco and BJ’s Wholesale Club is being recalled due to salmonella risk after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration found salmonella products it tested, the FDA announced Aug. 11.

The shrimp is sold in 1, 1.5 and 2-pound bags and were distributed nationwide from late February through mid-May. The affected product details are below. The brand names of the products are: Aqua Star Reserve, Censea, Fresh Market, Kirkland, Tops, Unistar and Wellsley Farms.

The products, produced by the Indian company Kader Exports Private Limited, were potentially contaminated with salmonella, which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections among young children, frail or elderly people and those with weakened immune systems. Healthy people with salmonella can experience fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. For more on the health risks, read the FDA announcement here.

There have been no reports of any illnesses to date associated with these cooked shrimp products. However, the FDA noted in its release that the cooked shrimp imported by Kader Exports was tested by the FDA and found to contain salmonella. Kader Exports did not distribute that shrimp and have agreed to voluntarily destroy cooked shrimp found violative. The FDA said the probable root cause for this recall is cross contamination. The company says it has eliminated the source of contamination and preventive steps were taken, the FDA reported.

“Based on known consumption patterns, it is believed most if not all the distributed products have been consumed, and any remaining product has been placed on hold subject to further evaluation,” the FDA continues in its release about the products. “Consumers who have purchased the above product are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.”

Consumers with questions may contact the company, Kader Exports Private Limited, based in Andhra Pradesh, India, at +91-022-62621004/ +91-022-62621009, Mon-Fri 10:00 hrs -16:00hrs GMT+5.5.
