Listeria contamination concerns have Sobeys grocery stores removing Compliments brand broccoli slaw from store shelves.
The recall applies to every province, except Quebec, and consumers should not eat the product. The affected items are sold in a 340-gram package with a best before date of Nov. 25, 2016.
The UPC code is 0 68820 10422 3.
The recall was prompted by test results from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), which is conducting a food safety investigation that may lead to the recall of other products.
So far, no illnesses have been reported in this case.
Food contaminated by Listeria may not look or smell spoiled.
CFIA said 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.
