Several Bread Brands Recalled Over Metal Pieces Discovered in Products
A recall has been issued for several brands of bread in three provinces after metal fragments were discovered in some of the products.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is recalling eight brands of white, brown, and multigrain breads as well as hotdog and hamburger buns sold in Ontario, Quebec, and Newfoundland and Labrador.
A total of 37 products from Country Harvest, Deli World, D'Italiano, Giant Value, Great Value, No Name, President's Choice, and Wonder have been recalled.
CFIA is advising consumers not to eat any of the products listed in its Nov. 4 advisory .The firm that initiated the recall, Wonder Brands Inc., said the bread advisory is linked to the Oct. 30 CFIA recall of Sifto brand Hy·Grade Salt after metal was found in its bulk products."Wonderbrands initiated a voluntary recall due to foreign material contamination in bulk salt received from our supplier," the company said in a press release . "This issue affected only one of our bakeries."Wonderbrands said it immediately halted all use of the contaminated salt and initiated the removal of all potentially affected products from the market.
"We have restocked all stores with new products made using salt from an alternate supplier," Wonderbrands said. "The products currently available in stores are safe for consumption."
Costco and Giant Tiger both posted notices late last month for bread sold in their stores. The Giant Tiger recall was for 15 Wonder Brands products while Costco's recall was for three Country Harvest breads and one Wonderbread product.The recalled Country Harvest products from the CIFA advisory are:
