Northwest Wild Products is recalling 6.5 oz. metal cans of wild steelhead salmon that have product codes starting with 'OC' because they may be contaminated with botulinum. This recall is due to the risk of botulism, a serious illness that can cause paralysis and even death if not treated promptly.
The cans may contain Clostridium botulinum, a bacterium that produces a toxin causing botulism. This illness can lead to muscle weakness, paralysis, and respiratory failure if not treated immediately. The risk is highest when the product is not properly heated before consumption.
Anyone who owns or purchased these specific cans of wild steelhead salmon between September 2015 and the current date. Consumers at highest risk are those with compromised immune systems or those who consume the product without proper cooking.
Check for product codes on the can starting with 'OC' on the top or bottom of the can. These cans were distributed until September 2015 and do not have a UPC number.
Immediately discard any cans with product codes starting with 'OC' found on the top or bottom of the can.
