Hong Kong – CFS urges public not to consume batch of prepackaged chilled crayfish suspected to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes

Posted on July 17, 2023 by | Leave a comment

CFS

The Centre for Food Safety (CFS) of the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department today (July 13) urged the public not to consume a batch of prepackaged chilled crayfish due to possible contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, a pathogen. The trade should stop using or selling the affected batch of the product immediately if they possess it.

Product details are as follows:

Product name: Signature Mala Crayfish
Brand: JUEWEI
Place of origin: China
Distributor: Juewei Food (Hong Kong) Limited
Net weight: 130 grams
Use-by date: July 7, 2023

“The CFS collected the above-mentioned sample from a retail outlet in Mong Kok for testing under its routine Food Surveillance Programme. The test result showed the presence of Listeria monocytogenes in 25 grams of the sample, exceeding the standard of the Microbiological Guidelines for Food which states that Listeria monocytogenes should not be detected in 25g of food,” a spokesman for the CFS said.

The spokesman said that the CFS has informed the vendor concerned of the irregularity and has instructed it to stop sale and to remove from shelves the affected batch of the product. Should there be sufficient evidence, prosecution will be instituted. The distributor concerned has initiated a recall of the affected batch of the product according to the CFS’ instruction. Members of the public may call the distributor’s hotline at 3468 6021 during office hours for enquiries about the product recall.
