The CDC and FDA issued advisory notices to caution consumers about the reason for Jensen Tuna's voluntary recall.
Jensen Tuna, a Louisiana-based company, announced a voluntary recall of its frozen ground tuna on Tuesday for its potential link to salmonella.
"Restaurants and retailers should check with their suppliers and not sell or serve recalled frozen ground tuna and should wash and sanitize locations where recalled ground tuna was stored," the notice continued. In a notice issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention , the agency cautioned sushi lovers of the dangers of consuming tuna raw amid the outbreak. Like the FDA, the CDC recommended consumers avoid eating tuna without knowledge of its origin.
Jensen Tuna's recall comes after the FDA and CDC's investigation into 13 reported illnesses caused by salmonella. While both agencies have determined on Wednesday that no further samples of Jensen Tuna tested positive for salmonella, it's important to know the dangers of the deadly bacteria.
