Israel’s long national nightmare of food safety scares is continuing with a new recall, this time of frozen salmon from the Maadaney Miki company.
The firm fears a listeria outbreak and is recalling frozen fish processed in July and August.
Consumers with salmon marked as made on 03/07/2016 with an expiration on 27/02/2017 or several sets of dates (05/07/2016, 01/03/2017; 07/07/2016, 03/03/2017; 14/07/2016, 10/03/2017; 02/08/2016, 29/03/2017; 04/08/2016, 31/03/2017) are told not to use the product and to contact the company at 1-700-50-55-40.
Food safety recalls are somewhat common in Israel, but have taken on added prominence after a scandal last month when Unilever declined to recall Telma cornflakes infected with salmonella, saying they had not gone out to consumers, and only later admitted that they had.

As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
