TORONTO - The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued a pair of food recalls because of concerns about Listeria monocytogenes and salmonella.
The agency and Siena Foods Ltd. say a brand of Prosciutto Cotto Cooked Ham may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. The product was sold to food stores in large packages for further slicing bearing "best before" dates of March 8 and March 22, 2010.
The CFIA says the cooked ham would have been sold to consumers after Jan. 11 in Ontario, Alberta and Quebec.
The agency is also warning the public about certain products containing ingredients recalled by Basic Food Flavors Inc. due to Salmonella contamination.
The products include Cajun Mix, Peanut B.B.Q., B.B.Q. Sunflower Seeds under the Almira name and Fontaine Sante Spinach Dip.
These products may have been distributed nationally.
There have been no reported illnesses in Canada associated with the consumption of these products.
