FDA issues Class 1 recall for salmon sold at popular retail chain


CINCINNATI (WKRC) – An FDA recall of smoked salmon from a popular chain of retail stores was recently reclassified as a Class 1 recall, the highest risk level available.

The Food and Drug Administration issued a recall for Kirkland Signature brand smoked salmon, sold at Costco, for possible Listeria Monocytogenes contamination in October of 2024, but the recall was recently readjusted to Class 1, the highest risk level, which the FDA defines on its website as “a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of, or exposure to, a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.”

The recall specifically affects 111 cases of Kirkland Signature Smoked Salmon in twin 12 ounce packages, UPC 0 96619 25697 6, Lot 8512801270 with the best by date of 11/13/2024.

The product had not been on shelves for some time, but it is possible that some customers still have it in their freezer for later use.

Those who purchased the product should throw it away or return it to Costco for a refund.

More information can be found on the FDA’s website.
