Market Basket Voluntary Recall on White Albacore Tuna Fish

admin » 28 December 2011 » In Food Borne Illness » No Comments

All Market Basket locations in Massachusetts as well as New Hampshire have issued a Voluntary Food Recall on 5 ounce cans of Market Basket White Albacore Tuna Fish in Water.  The reason for the recall is due to the mislabeling of soy that may be contained in the tuna.  Soy is not listed as a possible allergen in the tuna and therefore, Market Basket feels that the product should be pulled from shelves. The soy in the product comes from the vegetable broth that is used in the product.  Consumers should either discard cans or return cans with a “best if purchased by” date of August 18, 2014 and August 19, 2014 for an exchange or full refund at any Market Basket location.  So far there have been no reports of people affected by this recall.

Salmonella may contaminate 6,141 cartons of cilantro that was distributed in 7 states.  This cilantro is being voluntarily recalled by a California food company.

Pacific Cilantro, based in Salinas, announced that a sample of their herbs was found to be contaminated with salmonella by the Food and Drug Association (FDA).

While no illnesses have been reported, the cilantro is being recalled as a precaution.

Also known as coriander, the cilantro was distributed in California, Arizona, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Indiana, South Carolina, and Missouri through a number of retailers.

If you purchased cilantro after November 16 and before December 10, you are advised to return the herb.

The cilantro was grown in the Phoenix area by Salt River Farming.  Each bunch of recalled cilantro has “Pacific” on the twist tie and carries the UPC code 33383 80104.

Salmonella can cause serious or even fatal illness in people with compromised immune systems, such as children and the elderly.
