Bumble Bee recalls specific 2.5oz tuna pouches with jalapenos and olive oil due to pouch seal defects that could cause contamination. Stop using if purchased between March and September 2017.
Bumble Bee Foods, LLC, has issued a recall on specific codes of pouched Albacore tuna due to defects in the pouch seals which could result in product contamination by spoilage organisms or pathogens, and could lead to illness if consumed.
Bumble Bee is recalling certain pouches of Prime Fillet Albacore Tuna with jalapenos and olive oil because the pouch seals may be defective. This could lead to contamination by harmful bacteria if the product is consumed.
The pouch seals may not close properly, allowing spoilage organisms or pathogens to enter the product. If consumed, this could lead to foodborne illness, but the risk is low due to the product's short shelf life and limited distribution.
Anyone who purchased the specific 2.5oz pouches with jalapenos and olive oil between March and September 2017. The risk is low as the defect is unlikely to cause serious illness.
