Multiple egg products were just recalled in Quebec over Salmonella concerns

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has recalled multiple Supreme brand liquid egg products distributed in Quebec and Ontario over Salmonella concerns.

Supreme Egg Products Inc. makes the affected items, which were originally recalled on April 9. The CFIA updated the notice this week to include additional lot numbers, bringing the total to ten. The recall covers both Liquid Whole Eggs and Liquid Egg White, sold in 1 kg packages. Worth noting: the products were destined for hotels, restaurants, and institutions rather than retail consumers, so these aren’t items you’d typically find on grocery store shelves.

Anyone who has the affected products on hand is told not to consume, use, sell, serve, or distribute them.

What is Salmonella?

Salmonella is a bacterial infection that typically causes symptoms including diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps, usually appearing between six hours and six days after exposure. Most people recover without treatment, but the infection can be more serious for young children, elderly people, pregnant women, and those with weakened immune systems.

The CFIA has classified this as a Class 2 recall, meaning the product is unlikely to cause serious long-term health consequences but could still pose a health risk.
