  • Boxes containing 12 3-lb. plastic bags of “SOM SEE NEH KIMCHI Dumplings” with “Shelf Life: Frozen with 16months” and case code 96859-08223.

The recalled products  do not bear the USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to retail locations in Southern California.

The lack of inspections  was discovered on March 14, 2017 when an Office of Investigations, Enforcement, and Audit (OIEA) officer discovered the products in commerce, during routine surveillance activity at a retail store in California.

No adverse reactions due to consumption of these products have been reported. Anyone concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.  Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.

FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers. When available, the retail distribution list(s) will be posted on the FSIS website.
