LOS ANGELES — Canned tuna producers Bumble Bee Foods and Tri-Union Seafoods have issued separate voluntary recalls for thousands of cases of canned chunk light tuna that could be contaminated.

San Diego-based Bumble Bee is recalling 31,579 cases of canned chunk light tuna with three specific UPC codes that were produced in February and distributed nationally. Tri-Union Seafoods’ recall involves 2,745 cases, or 107,280 cans, of Chicken of the Sea 5-ounce canned chunk light tuna in oil and 5-ounce canned chunk light tuna in water that was sold nationwide between February and March.

All of the recalled products were canned in the same Chicken of the Sea facility in Lyons, Ga., Chicken of the Sea said.

Both companies said the recalls are related to “deviations” in the commercial sterilization process, and could result in contamination by “spoilage organisms or pathogens,” according to the recall notices.
