“Food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick. Symptoms can include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches, severe headache and neck stiffness,” said the CFIA.

Though there is confirmed distribution in Ontario and Quebec, there is also a chance of it having been distributed nationally.
