Krasnyi Oktyabr’s recall notice said New York State Department and Markets discovered the possibility of listeria in lot No. D139149161-153 of Starfish Seafood Trio — Cold Smoked Salmon, Halibut, Trout. The 8-ounce vacuum-sealed packs with a Dec. 1, 2027 expiration date went to distributors in Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, New York, Georgia and Massachusetts.
Listeria infects about 1,250 people in the United States annually, according to the CDC, and kills about 172 of those people. Adults over 65, newborns and people with damaged immune systems are most vulnerable to listeria’s worst effects. The high fevers brought on by listeria can cause miscarriages and stillbirths in pregnant women who are infected. Most people will feel as if they have the flu, along with headaches and muscle stiffness.

“Krasnyi Oktyabr Inc. is a wholesale distributor and did not manufacture the recalled product,” the company-written, FDA-posted recall notice said. “The company has notified its affected customers and requested that they immediately discontinue the sale and distribution of the recalled product, identify any remaining inventory, and notify their customers as appropriate.”
If you have the recalled Starfish Seafood Trio, either return it to the store for a refund or throw it deep enough into the garbage that curious pets can’t get to it.
Questions about the recall should be directed to Krasnyi Oktyabr, 718-858-6720, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Eastern time.
