W & C International Import Inc. is recalling "Rely" Dried Yellow Croaker because the product was found to be un-eviscerated. The recalled "Rely" Dried Yellow Croaker was distributed nationwide in bulk cardboard boxes.
The “Rely” Dried Yellow Croaker was sampled by a New York State Department of Agriculture Food Inspector during inspection. Subsequent analysis of the product by New York State Food Laboratory personnel confirmed that the “Rely” Dried Yellow Croaker was not properly eviscerated prior to processing.
The sale of un-eviscerated fish is prohibited under New York State Agriculture and Markets regulations because Clostridium Botulinum spores are more likely to be concentrated in the viscera than any other portion of the fish. Uneviscerated fish have been linked to outbreaks of botulium poisioning.
