Salmolux Recalls 3 Ounce Salmon Packages

By Marler Clark

Salmolux Inc. is recalling its Wild Alaskan Smoked Salmon Nova Lox sold in 3 ounce packages due to the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections

The Federal Way, WA company recalled lot # 01418 of Wild Alaskan Smoked Salmon Nova Lox.  It was distributed in Arizona, California, and Nevada, in Von's retail outlets and to Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, West Virginia, and Virginia in Food Lion retail outlets.

The product comes in a 3 ounce, blue package marked with lot # 01418 on its rear white label bearing the name of the product, its ingredients, and an expiration date.

Routine testing by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, turned up the Listeria monocytogenes in 3 ounce packages of Wild Alaskan Smoked Salmon Nova Lox.

As yet, there are no known illnesses attributed to the contaminated salmon.
