When a company announces a recall, market withdrawal, or safety alert, the FDA posts the company's announcement as a public service. FDA does not endorse either the product or the company.
Smilin’ Bob’s is voluntarily recalling Smilin’ Bob’s Original Smoked Fish Dip and Smilin’ Bob’s All Natural Smoked Fish Dip. This recall is being initiated as a result of the Banner Smoked Fish, Inc. recall of smoked fish due to possible contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. Smilin’ Bob’s used the recalled smoked fish from Banner Smoked Fish, Inc in the products listed below. The recall is issued only for products listed below.
Listeria monocytogenes is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
No illnesses have been reported to date.
Smilin’ Bob’s is working with distributors and retailers to quarantine and recover any impacted product remaining on store shelves. A total of 1,261 cases were distributed to retailers in the states of FL, GA, AL, SC, TN, NC, and VA.

@Mindy D I'm safe. You'd have to pay me big bucks to even sample some of these obnoxious-sounding fish concoctions you post. First, I hate anything fishy and Secondly, you have to be so careful with eating anything containing fish because it harbors bacteria.
No way!

@Kachina624 @Does this mean you don't like lox and bagels? I love lox, nova, smoked whitefish and smoked kingfish or mackerel dip/spread. There have been plenty of recalls lately though. The smoked fish is ether put on something with cream cheese or mixed with cream cheese or mayo and served on bagels with lettuce and onion or, for the spreads, on crackers. I haven't had the smoke fish spread in ages. I'm lucky I didn't order it.
