Ahi Tuna Wasabi Poke sold at Costco stores under the big box giant’s Kirkland Signature brand got recalled Saturday because the dish might have listeria.

Manufacturer Western United Fresh Co., doing business as Annasea Foods Group, said in its recall notice they made the move “after being notified by our green onion supplier of a Listeria monocytogenes positive test result in the green onions which were used only in Ahi Tuna Wasabi Poke on 9/17/2025 (Wednesday). We are continuing to work with our green onion supplier to determine the root cause.”

The recalled dish has a pack date of 9/18/2025, a sell by date of 9/22/2025, was packaged on clamshell plastic containers and was sold in the deli section of Costcos on Thursday. They went to stores in these states: Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Missouri, Mississippi, Georgia, Texas, Pennsylvania, Washington, Alabama, Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Indiana, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin.

Listeria kills about 260 of the estimated 1,600 people it infects in the United States each year, according to the CDC. Though the worst effects tend to hit adults over 65 and children under 5, pregnant women can suffer miscarriages and stillbirths. Most people get high fever, nausea, diarrhea, stomachaches and muscle stiffness.

If you have this tuna dish in your refrigerator or freezer, either trash it or take it back to Costco for a refund. Bring questions to Kent, Washington-based Annasea Foods Group at 425-558-7809, 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., Eastern time, Monday through Friday, or email info@annasea.com.
