Canada – Wagener’s brand Ham in Jelly (Jelly Pork) recalled due to Listeria monocytogenes

Posted on October 17, 2024 | Leave a comment

Gov Canada

Product
Ham in Jelly (Jelly Pork)
Issue
Food – Microbial contamination – Listeria
What to do

Do not consume, use, sell, serve or distribute recalled products

Distribution
Ontario
Wagener's-Ham in Jelly-Front
Wagener's-Ham in Jelly-Label

Affected products

The recalled products may have been sold by various retailers, either clerk-served, sliced, chunked or in smaller packages, with or without a label that may not bear the same brand, product name or best before date. Consumers who are unsure if they have purchased the recalled product are advised to contact their retailer.

The affected product is being recalled from the marketplace due to possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination.

What you should do

  • If you think you became sick from consuming a recalled product, contact your healthcare provider
  • Check to see if you have recalled products
  • Do not consume, serve, use, sell, or distribute recalled products
  • Recalled products should be thrown out or returned to the location where they were purchased

Food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick. Symptoms can include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches, severe headache and neck stiffness. Pregnant women, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems are particularly at risk. Although infected pregnant women may experience only mild, flu-like symptoms, the infection can lead to premature delivery, infection of the newborn or even stillbirth. In severe cases of illness, people may die.
