Health Canada and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) have been working overtime when it comes to food recalls lately.

The CFIA has now removed seven different food items from market shelves across Canada due to the possible presence of salmonella and listeria or because the products have undeclared ingredients.

The recalls touch everything from chocolates, soups and palm oils sold nationally, so you might wanna check your refrigerator and pantry to ensure you don't have any of the affected products.

If you do, Health Canada urges you to not consume, sell, serve, use or distribute them. In fact, it's best to toss 'em away or return them to the point of purchase.

Here are the food items to look out for:
