Health Canada and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) are currently recalling 30 cheese products from brands such as FreshFun Fantastic and Le Fromage au Village. The class one recall was flagged on February 14, 2023, and was triggered by the company.

The affected products, which were sold in Quebec and Ontario, are being "recalled from the marketplace due to possible Listeria contamination," Health Canada said. The recalled items may have been sold by various retailers, clerk-served or in smaller packages.

The CFIA is currently conducting an investigation to ensure that all recalled cheese items are being removed from the marketplace. As of February 14, 2023, there have been no reported illnesses associated with the consumption of any of the recalled dairy products, the federal health department said.

Health Canada recommends that consumers not serve, use, sell, or distribute recalled products.
