O'Ya hoho Enoki brand mushrooms sold in Ontario and Quebec have been recalled due to possible listeria contamination.
The Canadian Ministry of Health announced in an announcement on November 27 that the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has detected the possibility of Listeria monocytogenes contamination in these mushrooms in its tests. These mushrooms are mainly used in Asian cuisine.
According to this announcement, no reports of diseases related to the consumption of these mushrooms have been received so far. The CFIA has also collected the product from retailers.
These mushrooms are sold in packages of 200 grams with UPC code 8 57588 00231 1.
Health Canada has warned that symptoms of listeriosis infection include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches, severe headache and stiff neck. This disease is more dangerous for young children, the elderly, pregnant women and people with a weak immune system, and in severe cases it can lead to death.
The agency has emphasized that no one should consume, supply or sell these mushrooms.
