The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has issued a recall for two brands of frozen pastries due to salmonella contamination concerns. The affected brands, Sweet Cream and D. Effe T., include various products such as apollini mignon, mini lobster tail, Apollo K2, big lobstertail, sfogliata Napoli, big sfoglia Napoli, mini sfogliatella, and mini sflogliatella cioccolato.
The recall affects consumers in Alberta, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Quebec, though the CFIA has warned that these products could have been distributed to other provinces and territories as well. These frozen pastries may have been sold in clerk-served packages or in smaller, unlabelled packaging, or even in packaging that does not bear the brand name.
Salmonella-contaminated food may not exhibit obvious signs of spoilage, yet it can still cause illness. The CFIA cautions that young children, pregnant individuals, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems are particularly at risk for serious or even fatal infections. Symptoms of salmonella include fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea.
