If you recently stocked up on food supplies, you might want to take a look at the list that the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) keeps updated on food recalls in Canada.
According to the government agency, some of the newest recalls may have microbial contamination in the form of listeria and E.coli while others may have undeclared allergens.
In all cases, the CFIA recommends that you do not "use, sell, serve or distribute the affected product."
