Plain-English summary

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued a public health alert for fully cooked, frozen swai fried fish cutlet products. The products were produced by A & S Produce Inc., doing business as Greenland Food Company, in Vernon, California, from July 2022 to September 2022. The specific product affected is 1-lb. vacuum-packed packages containing “Fried Fish Cutlet.”

The alert was issued because the products were produced and distributed without the benefit of federal inspection. The items do not bear an establishment number or a USDA mark of inspection. FSIS discovered the issue during surveillance at an online retailer. The products were sold at retail locations in California and through online sales. No recall was requested because the products are no longer available for purchase.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. FSIS is concerned that some product may still be in consumers’ freezers. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them and should throw them away or return them to the place of purchase.
