Hummus Recall Expands

14 varieties of hummus & dip added to Loblaw's recall due to the possible presence of the toxin produced by Staphylococcus bacteria

Following a food safety investigation by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, Loblaw is expanding its recall.

Originally Loblaw only recalled the Moroccan Style Hummus, but since then 14 dips and hummus varieties have been added.

The recall has been issued because these products may contain the toxin produced by Staphylococcus bacteria.
