Eggs in Alberta, B.C., Ont., Man., Sask., recalled over salmonella concerns

January 18, 2025 Canuck

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued a recall due to a possible salmonella contamination of certain brands of eggs in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, Saskatchewan and other possible provinces.

The agency says the recall covers Compliments, Foremost, Golden Valley Eggs, IGA, no name and Western Family eggs.

The expiry dates for recalled eggs are Feb. 16, Feb. 22 and March 1.

The recall notice says consumers should not consume, use, serve or distribute the recalled products and are advised to throw the eggs away or contact the retailer that sold them.

The agency says food affected with salmonella might not look or smell spoiled but can still make people sick.

For healthy people, short-term salmonella symptoms include fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea, while the infection can be more serious or fatal for young children, pregnant women, elderly people and those with weakened immune systems.
