The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has issued a recall of certain President’s Choice brand salts due to the presence of plastic pieces in some of the products. The affected products include President’s Choice Mediterranean Sea Salts and President’s Choice Himalayan Pink Rock Salts. The CFIA is warning consumers not to use, sell, serve, or distribute the affected products.
The recall was issued after pieces of plastic were found in some of the salt products, posing a potential health risk to consumers. The CFIA is taking this precautionary measure to protect the public from potential harm. The agency is working to ensure that all affected products are removed from store shelves and destroyed.
Consumers who have purchased the affected products are advised to check their salt containers for any signs of plastic pieces. If plastic is found, the product should not be consumed and should be returned to the place of purchase for a refund. The CFIA is also advising consumers to check their kitchens and pantries for any affected products that may have been stored.
The recall only affects President’s Choice Mediterranean Sea Salts and President’s Choice Himalayan Pink Rock Salts, and not other President’s Choice products. The CFIA is working with the manufacturer to investigate the cause of the contamination and to prevent similar incidents in the future.
In the meantime, consumers are advised to be vigilant when consuming salt and other food products, and to report any concerns or complaints to the CFIA. The agency’s recall notice can be found on its website, and consumers can also contact the CFIA for more information on the recall. By taking this precautionary measure, the CFIA is helping to protect the health and safety of Canadians.
