The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued a pair of food recalls because of concerns about Listeria monocytogenes and salmonella.

The agency and Siena Foods Ltd. say a brand of Prosciutto Cotto Cooked Ham may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.

The product was sold to food stores in large packages for further slicing bearing "best before" dates of March 8 and March 22, 2010.

The CFIA adds that the cooked ham may have been sold to consumers in Ontario, Alberta and Quebec after Jan. 11.

Dr. Arlene King, Ontario's chief medical officer of health, also issued a warning Friday because the genetic fingerprint treatment at hospital.

The genetic fingerprint is also a match to a Siena Brand mild cacciatore salami that was recalled in December, Ontario's Health Ministry said.

In another development, CFIA is also warning the public about its continuing investigation into the food additive hydrolyzed vegetable protein (HVP), made by Basic Food Flavors Inc.

A U.S. investigation found traces of salmonella at the Las Vegas factory where it is made.

HVP is a flavour enhancer used in thousands of food products, such as soups, sauces and seasoned snack foods. It is often blended with other spices to make seasonings that are used in or on foods.

In Canada, more than 30 foods have been recalled, including Cajun Mix, Peanut B.B.Q., B.B.Q. Sunflower Seeds under the Almira name and Fontaine Sante Spinach Dip.

In the U.S., about 150 products have been recalled.

There have been no reported illnesses in Canada or the U.S. associated with the consumption of these products.
