The products are under the “Pacific Seafood” label and can be identified as 6 oz cans of “Premium Solid White Albacore Tuna,” 6.5 oz cans of “Pacific Salmon,” and 6.5 oz cans of “Smoked Pacific Salmon.”
The voluntary recall is being initiated due to a lack of documentation and possible under-processing at Skipanon Brand Seafoods (custom processor for Pacific Oyster Company). The problem at Skipanon Brand Seafoods was discovered during an inspection by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This recall is being made with the knowledge of the FDA and the Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA).
