A veggie noodle recall has been issued by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) due to concerns about a Listeria monocytogenes contamination, which can make you seriously ill.

According to the agency, items with a best before date of August 18, 2021 have been impacted.

The affected noodles were available for purchase in Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Quebec, but the CFIA said there is a possibility that they were sold nationally as well.

If you bought these noodles but haven't eaten them yet, the agency recommends that you either throw them out or take them back to the store. If you think you got sick after eating them, they recommend contacting your doctor.

"Food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick," said the CFIA in the notice. "Symptoms can include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches, severe headache and neck stiffness. In severe cases of illness, people may die."
