A food recall has been issued in Canada due to concerns that certain products may be contaminated with pathogenic E. coli.
Consumers are being advised not to eat, serve, use, sell or distribute the affected products. No illnesses have been reported so far, according to the recall notice.

Food contaminated with E. coli may not look or smell spoiled but can still cause illness. Symptoms can include severe stomach cramps, diarrhea that may be bloody, nausea and vomiting. In more serious cases, infections can lead to kidney complications.
Anyone with the recalled products should throw them out or return them to the place of purchase.
