Who is ensuring that the recalled products are removed from store shelves and from restaurants, hospitals and nursing homes?
The CFIA is monitoring the effectiveness of the Maple Leaf Foods recall. CFIA and public health units across Canada are verifying that 100% of affected product is removed from high-risk institutions such as hospitals, nursing homes and day cares and all retail stores are checked through a normal verification process. However, it is critical that retailers and distributors of Maple Leaf products take due diligence and remove affected products from their shelves and off their menus.
