Uneviscerated fish warning in New York
Albany, N.y. | October 09, 2008 12:01:13 AM IST
New York State Agriculture Commissioner Patrick Hooker is warning people not to eat frozen salted croaker distributed by the YS Trading Corp. of New York. Hooker said the uneviscerated fish was sold in Hicksville, N.Y.; Flushing, N.Y.; and New Jersey in un-coded, unlabeled plastic bags. He said uneviscerated fish is prohibited under New York state regulations because Clostridium botulinum spores are more likely to be concentrated in the viscera than any other portion of a fish. Uneviscerated fish has been linked to outbreaks of botulism poisoning. (UPI)
