Ready-to-eat sushi from Trader Joe's recalled over listeria concerns

Ready-to-eat sushi from Trader Joe's recalled over listeria concerns

 

Pre-made sushi and spring rolls makes for a great work day lunch, but after a new recall it may be time to toss the hand roll.

Fuji Food Products, Inc. (Fuji) announced a voluntary recall of ready-to-eat sushi, salads and spring rolls that were sold at retailers in 31 states including Trader Joe's, along the East Coast and Midwest.

 


The products were also sold at 7 Eleven, Walgreens, Food Lion, Hannaford, Giant Eagle Supermarkets, Porkys, Bozzutos, Supreme Lobster and Superior Foods.

Fuji voluntarily issued a recall after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notified the company of potential product contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, according to a press release. Public health officials have not yet reported any illness associated with the recalled products.

"As responsible processors of safe, fresh food for nearly 30 years, we are addressing this problem vigorously and we apologize to those who are affected by it," Fuji Food Products CEO Farrell Hirsch said in a statement. "We will restart operation only after we have eliminated the cause and the FDA certifies that our facility is once again free of possible contamination."

The small plastic trays have a clear lid with a sell-by date clearly marked on the label, where consumers can check to see if their products were affected.

 


Recalled items included poke bowls, bahn mi style salad, spring rolls, California rolls, smoked salmon Philly roll and tempura shrimp rolls and more.

A majority of the affected products were marked with sell-by dates between Nov. 19 and Dec. 6.

Oh shoot!
I love sushi.
I’m not sure if any of TJs sushi has raw fish. Not all sushi is raw fish. 😉 I love their shrimp spring rolls.

Ok. Here we go again. 

 

People, sushi is NOT raw fish. 

Sushi is vinegar rice. 

Raw fish is SASHIME. Pronounced sah-she-me. 

 

Sushi can have raw fish on/in it but it is NOT raw fish. 

 

When you call raw fish sushi what you are saying is raw fish is rice.

I just ate some wonderful sushi from Wegmans on Saturday night.  They made it while I watched.  I don't eat the prepackaged type.

 

And yes, I did eat raw salmon on the sushi and some vegetarian sushi too.  Delicious!

I don't think any of the items Trader Joe's sells are raw but I have never had it.  I don't buy prepackaged sushi anywhere.
