FDA Reels In Radioactive Shrimp At Walmart
Digest more
The FDA advised the recall in an Aug. 19 notice, saying certain raw frozen shrimp products processed by Indonesian company PT. Bahari Makmur Sejati (doing business as BMS Foods) had tested positive for Cesium-137, or Cs-137. Walmart sells the products under its Great Value brand.
And just to be clear, the FDA said people should not, in fact, eat the potentially radioactive shrimp. CBS said that customers can contact the store where they purchased the potentially toxic shrimp for a full refund.
