Canadian Food Inspection Agency Reviewing Smoked Salmon Over Listeria Threat

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is recalling Wild Sockeye Smoked Salmon and Sensations Wild Pacific Smoked Salmon over listeria concerns in Ontario. According to a release issued by the agency on Saturday night, officials stated that the products were sold mainly in Ontario, but that there is a chance that they were distributed to other provinces.

The agency says food contaminated with listeria may not look or smell spoiled, but it can make you sick. Symptoms include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches, severe headache and stiff neck.

No illnesses have been reported in connection with the salmon products. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency says the recall was triggered by the Toronto company that smokes the salmon, called Central Epicure. It says it is conducting a food safety investigation, which could lead to the recall of other products.

The no-name Wild Sockeye Smoked Salmon has the code 2017SE07 and the code for the Sensations Wild Pacific Smoked Salmon is 2017MA30 and 2017JN03.
