Three restaurants in Modesto may have served tuna contaminated with Hepatitis A, Fox40 is reporting. Camp Four Wine Café, Fuzio’s and Galletto Ristorante may currently have the potentially virus contaminated tuna.
There was a total of 70 cases containing 700 pounds of 8 oz yellowfin tuna steaks and 188 cases containing 2820 pounds of yellow fin tuna cubes distributed between California and Texas. Some products were distributed to retail locations and restaurants in California, Texas and Oklahoma. The items also included frozen tuna cubes and steaks.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration says Hawaii-based Hilo Fish Company told the agency in May it had recalled yellowfin tuna that tested positive for the virus. Hilo says the fish was sourced from Sustainable Seafood Company in Vietnam and Santa Cruz Seafood Inc. in the Philippines.
The FDA released a list of restaurants that may have bought contaminated fish from the Hawaii-based company.
Hilo Fish Company’s recalled products include 8-ounce steaks with label code 627152, and tuna cubes in 15-pound cases with label code 705342.
The CDC says hepatitis A is a liver disease that can be transmitted through food or skin-to-skin contact.
