Smoked salmon recalled over listeria concerns

A brand of smoked salmon is being recalled due to concerns that it may be contaminated with potentially harmful bacteria. 

Florida-based St. James Smokehouse is voluntarily recalling more than 90 cases of its Scotch Reserve Scottish Smoked Salmon "because it has the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes," according to the recall notice posted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). 

The Washington State Department of Agriculture discovered the bacteria in the finished product during routine testing, according to the recall.  

The recalled products were distributed by St. James through distributors from February through June 2022. The products were then sold at stores in 10 states.

The states that are impacted by the recall are Alabama, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts, Washington state (including Safeway Washington state stores), Virginia and Wisconsin.
