05:59 AM EDT, 08/20/2025 (MT Newswires) -- The US Food and Drug Administration has recommended that Walmart ( WMT ) recall certain raw frozen shrimp products on concerns that they may be contaminated with the Cesium-137 radioactive isotope and pose a safety threat, the FDA said Wednesday.
The FDA said that a radionuclide analysis of the products confirmed the presence of Cesium-137 in one sample of breaded shrimp, and that the complete investigation was still ongoing.
The FDA said that the products were supplied to Walmart ( WMT ) by Indonesia's Bahari Makmur Sejati, which has been added to a new import alert for chemical contamination.
Several media outlets reported that the suspected products have since been recalled by Walmart ( WMT ).
Walmart ( WMT ) did not immediately respond to an MT Newswires request for comment.
