Tuna sold at several popular store chains across the country has been recalled.

The cans of tuna have easy open pull tab can lids that may not be fully sealed and can at minimum leak or worse become contaminated with clostridium botulinum, or a potentially deadly type of food poisoning, Tri-Union Seafoods said in a news release.

Tri-Union Seafoods issued a voluntary recall due to the issue.

The tuna was sold under several brand names:

  • H-E-B (Texas)
  • Trader Joe’s (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 oz. cans/Costco (Florida and Georgia)
  • Genova 5 oz. cans/Harris Teeter, Publix, H-E-B, Kroger, Safeway, Walmart and independent retailers (Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, New Jersey, Tennessee, and Texas)
