Federal health authorities are directing a Pasadena, Texas, company to shut down and recall all its dried smoked catfish steaks and other smoked seafood produced since June 2007 because it failed to develop safety standards, leading to a risk of bacteria contamination in its products. There have been no reported illnesses, according to Food and Drug Administration spokeswoman Stephanie Kwisnek.
