A possible Listeria contamination has prompted the recall of sliced white mushrooms sold in Ontario and Quebec and possibly other provinces or territories.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency says a recall has been issued by Carleton Mushroom for the mushrooms, which were prepared for Metro Brands.
The product was sold in 227-gram packages with a best before date of Oct. 25, 2021.
Customers are being told to either throw the mushrooms out or return them to the store where they were purchased.
