Popular consumer products in Canada have been recalled or issued an advisory recently, regarding allergens. Those with sensitive allergies are watchful when it comes to the products they consume and use, so these allergens recalls are potentially very serious. Check the following products to keep yourself and loved ones with allergies safe.
President’s Choice Gluten-Free Chicken Strips Advisory
President’s Choice gluten-free chicken strips may be popular with those with celiac disease. Unfortunately, a consumer advisory has been placed on the gluten-free chicken strips by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency because they may contain undeclared gluten.
There have been several reports of bad reactions to the product by individuals who cannot tolerate gluten. The affected allergen advisory includes the 600-gram packages with a barcode number 060383204884. President’s Choice gluten-free chicken strips are sold all across Canada at Atlantic Superstore, Shoppers Drug Mart, Dominion, and No Frills.
The advisory may lead to a recall if an examination of the product shows it definitely contains gluten.
Celiac disease is a digestive immune disorder triggered by gluten and causes diarrhea, stomach pains, bloating, and weight loss. Celiac disease appears to be genetic, and it can affect people at all stages of life. Sometimes, it does not develop until a person is in their 60s or 70s. There is no cure, but avoiding wheat and other triggers can help maintain health.
Taylor Farms BBQ Ranch Chopped Salad Kits Recall
On Aug. 27, Taylor Farms salad kits sold at Sobeys Inc. and other stores have been recalled by the CFIA. The allergens recall is due to the product containing wheat and sesame without mentioning the allergens on the product.

The CFIA has established a Class 3 recall on the 377-gram salad kits with a UPC code of 030223041719. Class 3 recalls are issued for items that conflict with national agency required food safety regulations.
Taylor Farms BBQ Ranch Chopped Salad Kits have reportedly been sold in most provinces including:
- Alberta
- British Columbia
- Manitoba
- New Brunswick
- Newfoundland
- Labrador
- Nova Scotia
- Ontario
- Prince Edward Island
- Saskatchewan
Sobeys, FreshCo., Safeway, and IGA sell the allergen recalled salad kits.

Medical attention is necessary immediately in the case of a reaction.

Some people are allergic to mold spores, and molds tend to live anywhere. Mold allergies can be seasonal, typically affecting people in the spring and fall. Common mold symptoms include sneezing, runny nose, itchiness, and congestion. Mold can also trigger asthma. It is best to avoid coming into contact with mold whenever possible, although it can live indoors and outdoors.
