FDA Warning - Do not eat imported fish labled as monkfish

The FDA has issued a warning not to eat imported fish labeled as monkfish.

It seems that there is a risk that it may actually be possibly improperly prepared puffer fish.

There are strict provisions in the importation of puffer fish into the U.S. to minimize the possibility of the presence of the deadly toxin tetrodotoxin, however, there have been mislabeled fish imported and distributed by Hong Chang Corp., Santa Fe Springs, Calif.

Read more about the fish recall on my post on my Diet Tracker blog.
