Costco Recalls Ahi Tuna Poke in 30+ States Over Listeria Risk

Costco has recalled more than 3,000 pounds of its Kirkland Signature Ahi Tuna Wasabi Poke after testing found a risk of listeria contamination.

The recalled product, supplied by Annasea Foods Group, was sold in the deli section of Costco stores in the following states: Alabama, Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the recall Sept. 20.

Annasea Foods Group is working with the supplier to identify the root cause, it added.
