The plant-based milk beverages recalled due to a listeria outbreak that killed two people and hospitalized 13 others were produced in the Greater Toronto Area, health officials say.
Last Updated Wednesday, August 7, 2024 1:48PM EDTThe Canadian Food Inspection Agency said Wednesday that the 18 affected Silk and Great Value brand products were made by the third-party manufacturer Joriki Inc., which is located in Pickering, Ont., just east of Toronto.
Thirteen of those infected required hospitalization and two individuals in Ontario died as a result of the contaminated products, health officials previously told CTV News Toronto. Officials said more illnesses linked to the outbreak may continue to be reported in the future because the illness reporting period is between nine and 29 days.“No production on this dedicated production line will restart until the necessary corrective measures are implemented and the CFIA is satisfied that any contamination has been identified and eliminated,” the CFIA said in a news release.
The CFIA said symptoms include fever, nausea, cramps, diarrhea, vomiting, headache, constipation and muscle aches.
