Ecola Seafoods Inc. of Cannon Beach, OR, is voluntarily [recalling](http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm467234.htm?source=govdelivery&utm%5Fmedium=email&utm%5Fsource=govdelivery) all canned salmon and tuna with any code starting with “OC” because it has the potential to be contaminated with *Clostridium botulinum,* a bacterium which can cause life-threatening illness or death. Consumers are warned not to use the product even if it does not look or smell spoiled.

The Ecola Seafoods products were made by Skipanon Brand Seafoods LLC of Warrenton, OR, and this voluntary recall was initiated after Ecola Seafoods was notified that that its products were possibly under-processed. The problem was discovered during an inspection at Skipanon Brand Seafoods LLC by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Skipanon subsequently [recalled](https://www.foodsafetynews.com/skipanon-seafood-recalls-canned-fish-products-for-possible-botulism-risk/) all of its canned seafood products on Oct. 9\. Consumers who have purchased any of the recalled Ecola Seafoods canned salmon or tuna products are urged to return them to Ecola Seafoods for a full refund. Those with questions may call Cindy Beckman at (503) 436-9130 between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. PST, Monday through Friday. Botulism, a potentially fatal form of food poisoning, can cause the following symptoms: general weakness, dizziness, double-vision and trouble speaking or swallowing. Difficulty in breathing, weakness of other muscles, abdominal distention and constipation may also be common symptoms. People experiencing these problems should seek immediate medical attention.
