NEWPORT, Ore. (AP) — OM Seafood Co. said Tuesday it is recalling oysters harvested last month from Yaquina Bay at Newport on the Oregon coast.
The Portland-based company said the recall involves oyster meat and oysters in the shell harvested from Feb. 1 through Feb. 24.
The oyster meat includes all half-pint, pint and half-gallon containers, and 4-gallon buckets. Oysters in the shell include all petite to large Pacific oysters, Kumamoto oysters and Yaquina native oysters.
All shucked product containers with “sell” or “use by” dates of Feb. 15 through March 11 are included in the recall.
OM Seafood has distributed Yaquina Bay oysters only in Multnomah County in Oregon. But the oysters were also distributed to 14 individual restaurants and retail stores located in Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio, Utah, Arizona, Texas, Massachusetts, Kansas, and Colorado.
