Overview

• Walmart pulled three lots of Great Value raw frozen white Vannamei shrimp and is offering refunds after an FDA advisory to dispose of the products.
• The affected 2-pound bags carry lot codes 8005540-1, 8005538-1 and 8005539-1 with a best-by date of March 15, 2027, and were sold in 13 states.
• U.S. Customs and Border Protection flagged Cs-137 in containers at ports in Los Angeles, Houston, Savannah and Miami, and FDA labs detected the isotope in one breaded shrimp sample from the same supplier.
• Regulators said no product that tested positive entered U.S. commerce, but they urged consumers and retailers to discard specified lots as a precaution due to potential long-term cancer risk from repeated low-dose exposure.
• PT. Bahari Makmur Sejati (BMS Foods) was placed on an import alert and all alerting or positive shipments were denied entry as FDA tracing and coordination with Indonesian authorities continue.
