Another day, another Health Canada recall! The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and Health Canada continue to remove products from the Canadian marketplace due to an array of reasons. From hummus brands, and peanut butter all the way to various chocolate and candy products, the federal department is seemingly working overtime.

Now, Health Canada has recalled an additional five grocery items for reasons such as the presence of generic E. coli, undeclared ingredients and pieces of bone.

The CFIA and Health Canada are removing the affected products from shelves across Quebec and urge the public to not consume, sell, distribute or serve the recalled items. You can also choose to return the affected product at the point of purchase or dispose of it in the trash.
