Seafood Mushroom Recalled Due to Listeria Contamination Risk

Sun Hong Foods is recalling Seafood Mushroom (5.3 oz packages) distributed to California, Texas, Washington, Illinois, Florida, and New York due to potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination identified in product testing by the California Department of Public Health.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class I recall for a high-risk pathogen (Listeria monocytogenes). The source text does not report any illnesses or injuries to date, making the hazard theoretical rather than confirmed. Per the rubric, Class I recalls are never scored below 4, but when the pathogen is present without reported illness, the maximum score is 3. The high-risk nature of Listeria justifies a score of 3 rather than lower.
