Oysters harvested in Connecticut and distributed to restaurants and stores across five states could be contaminated by sewage, the Food and Drug Administration warned this week.
As a result, the FDA urged consumers not to eat oysters harvested in the Groton and Stonington areas of Connecticut and sold in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia. The oysters in question could also have been distributed beyond these states.
The potentially affected oysters were harvested between August 28 - 30, according to the FDA, and came from dealers CT-393-SS, AQ, CT-004-SS, AQ, and CT-020-SS, AQ. The affected lots numbers are L-30 and L-26B1.
