CHEESE RECALL

HelloFresh meal kits recalled in Canada over Listeria concerns

, ,

Some HelloFresh meal kits have been recalled due to possible Listeria contamination in several cheese products.

Affected products include shredded parmesan, cheese curds, feta, goat cheese, and mozzarella.

According to the Government of Canada, food contaminated with Listeria may not look or smell spoiled but can still cause illness. Symptoms may include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches, severe headache, and neck stiffness.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is conducting a food safety investigation, which may lead to the recall of additional products. The agency says it is also verifying that affected items are being removed from the marketplace.

The recall was initiated by HelloFresh, and no illnesses have been reported in connection with the affected products so far.

,

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has issued a national recall of McCain Tasti Taters brand Crispy Potato Bites after pieces of plastic were discovered in the product.

The agency said the recall is classified as Class Two, which signals a moderate risk that eating the food could cause short-term or non-life-threatening health problems.

The potato bites were distributed across Canada in retail outlets, according to the CFIA.

Consumers are being advised not to use, sell, serve, or distribute the affected product. McCain Foods Ltd. is listed as the recalling firm.

The CFIA published the notice on December 9, with the recall dated December 5 under identification number RA-81339.

Check your fridge for some types of deli meat that might be contaminated with listeria.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is recalling several types of meat from the brands Levitts, Compliments, and The Deli-Shop.

It’s updating the recall, which first came out in late November, to add more information about the affected products.

The CFIA says recalled products should be thrown out or returned to the store where they were purchased.

The recall affects Ontario, Nova Scotia, Quebec, and the CFIA indicates it may be considered national.
