The 400- and 700-gram bags of Selection Roasted BBQ Peanuts have been added
to a growing recall of items that may have been contaminated with
salmonella.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is warning the public not to eat the
peanuts because they contain hydrolyzed vegetable protein ingredients that
Basic Food Flavors has recalled in the U.S. and Canada.
The peanuts join a recall that includes potato chips, dips, soup mix, rice
cakes and pretzels. A complete list of recalled items is available in the
CFIA website.
CFIA said there have been no reported illnesses in Canada associated with
the consumption of these products.
Salmonella can cause high fever, headaches, vomiting, nausea, abdominal pain
and diarrhea.
