On August 11, 2006, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the recall of Krab Supreme Dip and Supreme Krab Dip, sold under the brand names of Salads of the Sea, Hen House and Fisherman’s Market, because of possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination.

The very young, elderly, and those with weakened immune systems are the most at risk. Pregnant women are at greater risk for listeriosis, the illness associated with a Listeria infection. Listeriosis can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women. Learn more about Listeria monocytogenes.
