Posted on April 12, 2024 by | Leave a comment

Quebec

QUEBEC CITY , April 11, 2024 /CNW/ – The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPAQ), in collaboration with the company Aliment Stabile, which carries out its activities on the premises of the company Salami Mondial , located at 3405, boulevard de la Concorde, in Laval , advises the population not to consume the products indicated in the table below, because these foods are likely to contain the Staphylococcus aureus bacteria .

Product name

Format

Target lot

“SWEET SALAMI CACCIATORE”

Unitary

Lot: 232336

“CACCIATORE SALAMI STRONG”

The products that are the subject of this warning were offered for sale in several establishments in Montreal, Laval and Lanaudière. The salami was vacuum packed in a transparent plastic bag. All products were sold refrigerated.

The operator is recalling the products in question. He agreed with MAPAQ to broadcast this warning as a precautionary measure. Additionally, people who have one of these products in their possession are advised not to consume it. They must return it to the establishment where they purchased it or throw it away. Even if the affected products do not show signs of spoilage or suspicious odor, their consumption may represent a health risk.

Food poisoning by staphylococci is characterized by a sudden onset of nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, cramps and diarrhea. Usually, symptoms appear 30 minutes to 8 hours after eating contaminated food and disappear after 24 hours.

It should be noted that no cases of illness associated with the consumption of these foods have been reported to MAPAQ to date.
