A brand of spaghetti sauce sold in Quebec has been recalled by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
The sauce, made by Érablière Godbout, could cause botulism, according to an advisory by the agency.
The sauce did not have a “keep refrigerated” label on the jars.
The spaghetti sauce, which was sold in 500 millilitre and one litre jars, should be returned to the store or thrown out.
No one has fallen ill after eating the sauce, but the recall has been ordered as a precaution, the agency said in a news release.
Symptoms in adults can include facial paralysis or loss of facial expression, fixed pupils, difficulty swallowing, drooping eyelids, blurred or double vision, slurred speech and hoarseness.
Symptoms of botulism in children can include difficulty swallowing, slurred speech, generalized weakness and paralysis.
