Protein and health food bars, as well as more Robin Hood brand flour, are the subject of recalls reported this week by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
The recall on Robin Hood brand Baker’s Hood All Purpose Flour in the 20 kilogram bag, with best before dates from mid-October to early November, are being recalled on suspicion of E. coli 0121 contamination. The recall is an extension of a notice issued June 2.
The flour was distributed in Ontario but possibly nationally. Illnesses have been reported involving flour but none that are related to this particular warning, the CFIA said.
