PORT ANGELES, Wash. — A Port Angeles butcher shop recalled its smoked salmon because it could possibly be contaminated with listeria.
The Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) announced the recall of the smoked wild white king salmon sold at Sunrise Meats Inc.
“Listeriosis can cause fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance, and convulsions, sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms,” according to WSDA.
It primarily affects older adults, people with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women and their newborns, according to the WSDA.
The recall was based on routine sample testing done by WSDA.
Sunrise Meats and the WSDA are still investigating the source of the problem.
People who purchased the salmon with a sell by/use by date of July 21, 2025 are asked not to eat the product and return it to the butcher shop.

Sunrise Meats has not reported any illnesses associated with this recall.
Anyone with questions can call the company at 360-457-3211.
