More frozen raw shrimp, some of which are sold at Publix, have been recalled by Seattle-based Aquastar Corp. for possible radioactive chemical exposure.
In an Oct. 17 notice posted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the company is voluntarily recalling a limited amount of shrimp products imported from Indonesia.
The company stated that the recall is due to the products having been "prepared, packed, or held under conditions" that may have exposed them to "very low levels" of cesium-137.
Recalled shrimp: Possible radioactive contamination. See full list.
The recall was announced as a precautionary measure as none of the listed products tested positive for cesium-137, officials noted.
