Check your fridge: Fruit and yogurt parfait recalled due to salmonella risk
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is recalling containers of yogurt and fruit parfait due to the risk of salmonella.
The agency announced the recall on its site on January 15, stating that two products by Urban Fare — UF Chia Tropical Fruit Parfait and Yogurt Parfait — are recalled due to possible microbial contamination that can cause salmonella.
“The affected products are being recalled from the marketplace due to possible salmonella contamination,” states the site. “These products were made using granola recalled by Quaker Canada on January 11, 2024.”
Previously, various cereals and granola bars have been recalled across Canada due to possible salmonella contamination. The list comprises mainly Quaker brand products, but one Cap’n Crunch product has also been affected.
The federal food agency shared photos of the labels that buyers in Alberta and British Columbia are being asked to keep an eye out for.

“This recall was triggered by a recall in another country,” officials shared. “There have been no reported illnesses associated with consuming these products.”
So what should you do if you bought this product?
Buyers are being asked to throw out or return the items to the location where they were purchased.
Although contaminated food may not look or smell spoiled, it can still make you sick. Short-term symptoms include fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea.
Salmonella can be serious or even deadly for young children, pregnant women, seniors, and those with weakened immune systems.
