Campsie Glen Smokehouse Ltd is recalling batches of its Smoked Halibut, Smoked Trout and Smoked Salmon products because of concerns over the company’s procedures in place to control Clostridium botulinum. RiskManufacturing controls aimed at preventing the growth and toxin production of Clostridium botulinum could not be demonstrated satisfactorily by the company.
The issue relates to controlling factors to prevent the growth and toxin production of Clostridium botulinum. The botulinum toxin may cause a serious form of food poisoning called botulism. Although no trace of the toxin has been found in products tested, a recall from customers is being carried out as a precautionary measure.
