Allergy Alerts
Both product ingredients and the manufacturing process can change without notice, so it is very important that you check the labels on the products you buy every time.
There are instances, however, when manufacturers use certain agencies to notify the public about the possibility of undeclared allergenic substances in food. You can subscribe to both Canadian and American agencies to stay informed about these product alerts/recalls.
- Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA)
The CFIA is a federal government agency that provides, free of charge to the public, alerts and recalls in three areas of interest: animals, food and, plants.
You can choose the areas that are of most interest to you, including information on food labeling and other government policies and procedures.
