Sushi Recall as FDA Issues Highest Risk Warning
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A recall of sushi products has been issued the highest risk classification by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Hy-Vee, a supermarket chain headquartered in Iowa, issued a voluntary recall for a range of sushi products on June 5 because of possible listeria contamination. The FDA subsequently issued its Class 1 risk classification on June 25. Newsweek contacted Hy-Vee for comment by email outside regular working hours. Stock image.

A recall of numerous Hy-Vee sushi products has been issued a Class 1 risk classification by the FDA. Frank Duenzl/picture-alliance/dpa/AP Why It Matters A Class I risk classification represents "a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death," according to the FDA. Listeria contamination may lead to a range of symptoms in infected individuals. For those experiencing less severe infections, symptoms include fever, muscle aches, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, which often last between one and three days, the FDA said. For more severe and potentially life-threatening infections, symptoms may include headaches, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions. Severe infections are particularly dangerous for newborns, adults over age 65 and those with weakened immune systems. What To Know The affected products were sent to Hy-Vee retail locations throughout the Midwest, according to the FDA. The affected products include: Crispy Shrimp Roll 10Pc - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86792-00000 Crunchy Shrimp Roll - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86793-00000 Red Dragon Roll - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86811-00000 Rock N Roll Shrimp 10Ct - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86813-00000 Duo Spicy Calif Shrimp 10Pc - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86832-00000 Duo Spicy Veg Shrimp 10Pc - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86835-00000 Duo Crunchy Calif Shrimp 10Pc - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86840-00000 Duo Crispy Calif Shrimp 10Pc - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86841-00000 Duo Crunchy Veg Shrimp 10Pc - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86846-00000 Duo Crispy Veg Shrimp 10Pc - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86847-00000 Spicy Shrimp Poke Bowl - 122.5 cases - code: 02-86882-00000 What People Are Saying Haley F. Oliver, a professor of food science at Purdue University, previously told Newsweek: "Listeria monocytogenes is a common microorganism that can be found in the natural environment, for example in soil. There are many factors that determine if someone gets listeriosis—a listeria infection. In most instances, an immunocompromised person, so young, old, pregnant or otherwise immunocompromised, must eat contaminated food. The number of bacteria resulting in infection and the amount of time before illness varies considerably. Symptoms vary among people but can include fever, flu-like symptoms, headache, stiff neck, confusion and loss of balance." Mary O'Riordan, a professor of microbiology and immunology at the University of Michigan Medical School, previously told Newsweek: "Listeria has an unusual capacity to grow at refrigerated temperatures. Although the bacterium can contaminate many types of food, cheeses or deli meats that are kept in cold storage for long periods in stores or at home, are a place where Listeria can keep growing. "Early symptoms of listeria infection look similar to other common foodborne infections, including fever, diarrhea and vomiting, so it's often not diagnosed right away. Unfortunately, sometimes listeria can spread into the brain and cause more serious illness, like meningitis. In those cases, if people experience headache, stiff neck or confusion, they should seek urgent medical attention." Cleveland Clinic, on its website: "Listeria is a bacterial infection that's more dangerous during pregnancy. It can cause pregnancy loss, lifelong illness in your child and newborn death. It causes flu-like and digestive symptoms. Avoiding foods like deli meats, soft cheeses and unpasteurized milk can reduce your risk." What Happens Next The recall is listed as ongoing, according to the FDA.

Iowa Gov. Reynolds signs bill to reform pharmacy benefit managers
DES MOINES, Iowa (KCAU) — Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds signed a bill Wednesday aimed at bringing changes to pharmacy benefit managers, also known as PBMs. The legislation, Senate File 383, aims to help prevent more independent and rural pharmacies from closing their doors in the Hawkeye State. PBMs are the middlemen between health insurance companies and pharmacies. Whenever you fill a prescription, the PBM determines how much the pharmacy actually gets paid for dispensing your medication. Iowa governor rejects GOP bill to increase regulations of Summit's carbon dioxide pipeline In recent years, that amount has sometimes been less than what it costs the pharmacy to fill a prescription, forcing them to either refuse the fill, or take a financial loss. Senate File 383 would attempt to prevent that by adding requirements for how much pharmacies must be reimbursed for filling medications, to ensure they get paid a fair price. It also adds other patient protections, like preventing PBMs from hitting you with a monetary penalty if you choose a non-preferred pharmacy, or requiring you to use a mail-order pharmacy service to use your insurance coverage. As of Wednesday, a total of 32 states have passed similar legislation, according to the Iowa Governor's Office. Opponents of the measure have argued the bill would increase health insurance premiums, but supporters maintain that in states that have previously passed similar legislation, that has not come to pass. Governor Reynolds released a statement Wednesday explaining her reasoning for signing the bill. In part, it says, 'The new bill takes steps toward addressing these challenges by targeting PBM practices that harm both patients and independent pharmacies. Local pharmacies, especially in rural areas, are vital to community health and local hospitals but are being driven out by opaque, one-sided contracts.' You can read the governor's full statement here. The Iowa Pharmacy Association applauded the bill's passage Wednesday. CEO Kate Gainer said, 'Governor Reynolds' leadership and the Iowa Legislature's bipartisan support of SF 383 sends a powerful message that the health of Iowa communities comes first. For too long, PBMs have put profits over patients, contributing to the closure of more than 200 pharmacies in Iowa since 2014. This law gives us the tools to level the playing field and protect access to care, especially in rural areas.'

ABI testified at every turn in favor of legislation that would support small independent pharmacies in Iowa. The bill that the Governor signed today is not that. Senate File 383 includes expensive, unneeded provisions that are going to drive up the costs of pharmacy services in Iowa without any discernable improvement in patient care. Iowans – including businesses and employees – will bear these costs at the pharmacy counter and in the structure of their health care plans. This is an additional headwind in an already challenging business environment. Now law, ABI will take every opportunity to mitigate the increased costs on our members and their team members throughout Iowa.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
