Whole Foods Market recalled Explorateur French Triple Crème cheese from nine stores located in New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Illinois, Connecticut and New Jersey. The cheese has the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. The cheeses were recalled after one of the distributors notified Whole Foods that the cheese might have been contaminated during production. The cheese in question is sold in stores using three different names (Explorateur, Explorateur French Triple Crème Cheese, and Explorateur Triple Crème French Cheese). The products were sold pre-cut and packaged in clear plastic wrap, or sold in a single 8-ounce serving with clear Whole Foods’ market branding. @ https://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm604172.htm

According to the CDC (@ https://www.cdc.gov/salmonella/kratom-02-18/index.html), since our Report on April 4th, 2018 (http://ask-bioexpert.com/all/salmonella-kratom-causes-fda-orders-mandatory-recall/ ) the number of illnesses has increased from 87 to 132 and three states were added to the list.

According to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) the Quebec-based Les Cuisines Gaspésiennes de Matane Ltée has issued a nationwide recall of some of its smoked ham products over possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination. The recall was prompted by the results of a test conducted by CFIA, showing Listeria monocytogenes. The 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. The CFIA is verifying that industry is removing recalled product from the marketplace. There have been no reported illnesses associated with the consumption of these products. @ http://www.inspection.gc.ca/about-the-cfia/newsroom/food-recall-warnings/complete-listing/2018-04-04/eng/1522891863091/1522891866827
