Super World Trading Inc. is recalling approximately 26,270 pounds of ready-to-eat fish chips imported from China because the country is ineligible to export processed products to the U.S.

The agency’s classification

USDA FSIS: Class I

Class I is a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly classifies the recall as 'High - Class I' and 'Class I'. Per the rubric, if the agency's own classification is USDA Class I, the score must be at least 4 (Severe), regardless of the fact that no illnesses were reported.

Plain-English summary

Super World Trading Inc., a Brooklyn, N.Y. establishment, is recalling approximately 26,270 pounds of ready-to-eat (RTE) imported Siluriformes products. The specific product subject to recall is 4.23 oz. (120g) plastic tray and cover packages containing “Golden Spoon Hot Pot Fish Chips.” These products were imported from the People’s Republic of China, a country that is eligible to import raw Siluriformes products into the United States but is not eligible to export processed or ready-to-eat Siluriformes products.

The recall was initiated after the problem was discovered during a routine U.S. Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) surveillance activity of imported products. The recalled items do not bear an establishment number nor a USDA mark of inspection. The products were shipped to retail and wholesale locations nationwide.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. FSIS is concerned that consumers may still be in possession of the product and urges consumers not to consume them. Consumers should throw the products away or return them to the place of purchase. Anyone concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
