Eggs recalled in several provinces over salmonella concerns

Jan 18, 2025 | 2:51 PM

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued a recall due to a possible salmonella contamination of certain brands of eggs in British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario and other possible provinces and territories.

The agency says the recall covers certain brands of Compliments, Foremost, Golden Valley Eggs, IGA, no name and Western Family eggs, with expiry dates of Feb. 16, Feb. 22 and March 1.

The recall says not to consume, use, serve or distribute the recalled products and consumers are advised to throw the eggs away or contact the retailer that sold them.

The agency says food affected with salmonella might not look or smell spoiled but can still make people sick.

For healthy people, short-term salmonella symptoms include fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea, while the infection can be more serious or fatal for young children, pregnant women, elderly people and those with weakened immune systems.
