Acme Smoked Fish Corporation is voluntarily recalling 564 pounds of Nova smoked salmon sold in Giant supermarkets because it may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. Testing by the Virginia Department of Agriculture found the bacteria in one package. No illnesses have been reported to date, but listeriosis, the illness caused by Listeria monocytogenes, can take up to 70 days to appear after exposure.
The recalled product is Imported (Product of Denmark) Acme 4 ounce (113 gram) vacuum smoked salmon. The lot code is L.05122014 and the UPC number is 2338410406. It was distributed to Giant Food stores in Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, and Washington D.C.
