Walmart recalls possibly radioactive shrimp after public warned not to eat

Walmart has issued a recall for certain batches of its Great Value brand shrimp due to potential radioactive contamination. The recall affects shrimp sold in various sizes and packaging formats across the United States. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has warned consumers not to consume the affected shrimp, advising them to discard the product immediately. The recall was initiated after routine testing by the FDA detected the presence of elevated levels of radioactive material in the shrimp. While the specific source of the contamination is not yet known, Walmart is working closely with the FDA and other relevant authorities to investigate the issue and ensure the safety of its products. The company has emphasized that the recall is a precautionary measure and that no illnesses have been reported so far. Consumers who have purchased the affected shrimp are urged to return the product to the store for a full refund. The recall serves as a reminder of the importance of food safety and the need for rigorous testing to protect public health.
