Several types of Sabra brand hummus have been recalled by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency due to possible contamination by the Listeria bacteria.
According to the CFIA website, the recall was triggered after the products were recalled in another unspecified country.
No illnesses have been reported in connection with the consumption of the listed products.
In a statement, Sabra said the recall applies to products with a best before date up to Jan. 23, 2017. Anyone in possession of recalled products should discard them and contact the company for reimbursement.
The statement noted that while Listeria was detected at a manufacturing facility, none was found in any tested finished product.
Food contaminated with Listeria doesn’t necessarily show any visible alterations or suspicious odors. Symptoms can include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches and severe headaches. In severe cases, it can be fatal.
