Tri-Union Seafoods is recalling cans of tuna sold under the brand names Genova, Van Camp’s, H-E-B and Trader Joe's following concerns the "easy open" pull tab can come lose, which can cause a leak or allow contamination with the food poisoning Clostridium botulinum, the company said Monday.
Clostridium botulinum, a bacteria that can grow on metal surfaces, produces dangerous toxins that attack the nervous system.
The cans of tuna sold in 29 states, including California, Texas and Florida, at stores such as Costco, Walmart, Safeway and Kroger, the company said.
