CFIA expands deli meat advisory
- August 31, 2009 2:57 PM
- By Peter Hadzipetros
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has expanded its warning not to consume some Delstar and Compliments brand sliced meats because they may be contaminated with listeria bacteria.
The ready-to-eat meats have "Establishment Number 308" on the packaging and a best-before date between Aug. 26 and Oct. 1.
For a complete list of UPC codes and products affected by the warning, see the recall notice.
The affected sliced meats were sold in B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Quebec, the Yukon and the Northwest Territories. No reported illnesses have arisen so far, but the CFIA cautioned that listeria-tainted meat may not necessarily look or smell spoiled.
The meats were produced by Montreal-based Delstar Foods.
