HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) - Gorton's Incorporated has recalled about 1,000 cases of frozen fish in 10 states, including Oklahoma, after confirming items a Pennsylvania woman reported finding in her food were pills.
Gorton's voluntarily recalled the product yesterday as a precaution while a laboratory conducts further tests to determine the nature of the pills. The results are expected early next week.
Jud Reis is vice president of marketing for the Gloucester, Mass.-based company and says that product alteration is a very serious matter. He says Gorton's is conducting a full investigation into the source of the problem.
The recall is for Gorton's 6 Crispy Battered Fish Fillets, 11.4 ounces. The UPC Code is number. 44400157770, with a date code of 7289G1 and best-if-used-by date of April 2009.
The fish was sent to Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Alabama, California, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas.
