Food recalls in Canada: coffee, oat milk, sausages and other grocery items to look out for

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has recalled several foods sold across Canada that could pose a serious health and safety risk to consumers.

The recalled products have been flagged by the CFIA and are currently being removed from the marketplace for reasons including the presence of extraneous materials, dangerous bacteria and contamination, as well as undeclared ingredients.

Here's everything you need to know about the recalled foods:

Recalled Food:

• Eclipse Coffee Roasters brand Elevate Snapchill Coffee | 354 ml

Recall Reason: According to the CFIA, the affected product is being recalled from the marketplace because it may permit the growth of clostridium botulinum.
