The company said the issue was discovered during a routine inspection. According to the statement, no illnesses have been reported.

Bumble Bee Foods announced the recall of three types of their Chunk Light Tuna due to problems in the commercial sterilization process.
In an announcement posted on their website, the company said that the process deviations could result in contamination by spoilage organisms or pathogens, which could lead to life-threatening illness if the products are consumed.
A total of 31,579 cases produced in February 2016 and distributed nationally were included in the recall. The products are marked with a can code that starts with a “T.”

The three products involved in the recall are 5 ounce Bumble Bee Chunk Light Tuna in Water, 5 ounce Bumble Bee Chunk Light Tuna in Oil and 4 pack of 5 ounce Bumble Bee Chunk Light Tuna in Water.

When a company announces a recall, market withdrawal, or safety alert, the FDA posts the company's announcement as a public service. FDA does not endorse either the product or the company.
We aren't endorsing the company either.  We are posting our announcement as a public service.
