C&T Produce Wholesale Inc., doing business as L&V Food Supply, is recalling 1,152 pounds of peppered frozen, dried catfish products from Vietnam that bypassed U.S. import requirements. The recall affects 2-pound cardboard boxes labeled "Peppered Dried CATFISH" that do not bear USDA inspection marks.
Starting in January 2019, H&T Seafood recalled more than 71,000 pounds of frozen wild sheat catfish from Vietnam, then Maxfield Seafood recalled around 55,300 pounds, McAllen Cold Storage recalled approximately 52,000 pounds, and Fulton Seafood recalled more than 100,000 pounds of catfish.
Officials said the product was produced by a Vietnam establishment that is not eligible to export catfish to the United States. The product does not bear an establishment number nor a USDA mark of inspection.
