According to the details posted online by the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA), the recall was initiated on June 12, 2024, and is ongoing.

High levels of histamine can produce an allergic reaction, called histamine fish poisoning or scombroid fish poisoning, that may result in symptoms that generally appear within minutes to an hour after eating the affected fish.
The most common symptoms of histamine or scombroid fish poisoning are tingling or burning sensation in the mouth, facial swelling, rash, hives and itchy skin, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea; these symptoms usually resolve within several hours without medical intervention. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently; if symptoms are severe an individual may need to seek medical attention for treatment with antihistamines.
