Canned Tuna is Being Recalled from Multiple Brands and Stores. Do You Have Any?
If you have recently purchased canned tuna, you may want to double-check what's in your pantry. On February 7, Tri-Union Seafoods announced a voluntary recall of its canned tunas after receiving notice that a manufacturing defect may compromise the products' quality and safety. The company sells canned tuna under several brand names, including Trader Joe's, Genova, Van Camp's and H-E-B. The company announcement, shared by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, explains that the recall is "out of an abundance of caution," due to a manufacturing defect in some "easy open" pull tab can lids. The defect "may compromise the integrity of the product seal (especially over time), causing it to leak, or worse, be contaminated with clostridium botulinum, a potentially fatal form of food poisoning." Botulism, which can cause difficulty breathing, muscle paralysis and even death, is caused by a toxin made by clostridium botulinum. Consumers should not eat the tuna and either discard or return it, even if it doesn't look or smell spoiled. Check the UPC of your canned tuna to confirm whether it's included in the recall. Many of the affected products have "best if used by" dates ranging from December 2027 to January 2028. The following products are recalled: Trader Joe's Solid Light Yellowfin Tuna in Olive Oil (UPC: 51403) Trader Joe's Solid White Tuna in Olive Oil (UPC: 99287) Trader Joe's Solid White Tuna in Water (UPC: 99285) Trader Joe's Solid White Water Low Sodium (UPC: 95836) Trader Joe's Solid White Water No Salt Added (UPC: 99284) Genova Solid White Tuna in Olive Oil, 5-ounce can (UPC:4800000215) Genova Yellowfin Tuna in Olive Oil, 5-ounce can (UPC: 4800013265) Genova Yellowfin Tuna in Olive Oil, 4-pack of 5-ounce cans (UPC: 4800073265) Genova Yellowfin Tuna in Olive Oil, 6-pack of 7-ounce cans (UPC: 4800063267) Genova Yellowfin Tuna in Extra Virgin Olive Oil with Sea Salt, 5-ounce can (UPC: 4800013275) Van Camp's Solid Light Tuna in Oil, 5-ounce (UPC: 4800025015) Van Camp's Solid Light Tuna in Oil, 4-pack of 5-ounce cans (UPC: 4800075015) H-E-B Solid White Tuna in Water, 4-pack of 5-ounce cans (UPC: 4122043345) Double-check your canned tuna, regardless of where you purchased it.

Distribution details by brand: Trader Joe's label: Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Washington D.C., and Wisconsin Genova, 7-ounce: Costco in Florida, Georgia Genova, 5-ounce: Harris Teeter, Publix, H-E-B, Kroger, Safeway, Walmart and independent retailers in Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, New Jersey, Tennessee and Texas Van Camp's label: Walmart and independent retailers in Pennsylvania, Florida and New Jersey.
