Food contaminated with Hepatitis A virus may not look or smell spoiled. Consumption of food contaminated with this virus may cause Hepatitis A. The illness is usually mild and starts about 15 to 50 days after the contaminated food is eaten. It generally goes away by itself in a week or two, although it can last up to 6 months in some people.
Hepatitis A is an inflammation of the liver. Symptoms may include:
- Fever,
- Low appetite,
- Nausea,
- Vomiting,
- Diarrhea,
- Muscle aches, and
- Yellowing in the whites of the eyes and the skin (jaundice).
This recall was triggered by findings during an investigation into a foodborne illness outbreak. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is conducting a food safety investigation, which may lead to the recall of other products. If other high-risk products are recalled, the CFIA will notify the public through updated Food Recall Warnings that will be amplified by CK Public Health.
