Tuesday announced a voluntary recall on all codes of Deli Chef Tri-Bean Salad sold from store deli counters in some states because the product has the potential to be contaminated with Clostridium botulinum, a bacterium which can cause a potentially life threatening condition called botulism.

Consumers should not consume this product even if it does not look or smell spoiled. The Tri-Bean Salad was sold at deli counters in stores in Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, New Mexico, Utah, Washington, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

The green beans in the Tri-Bean Salad were processed by the New Era Canning Company, which has announced a recall of the beans. No illnesses have been reported.

No other salad products are affected by this recall. Customers are encouraged to dispose of the product and should contact the store where the product was purchased to receive a refund.
