Zucchini and pasta blend noodles recalled due to possible Listeria contamination

OTTAWA —
Freshline Foods Ltd. is adding Veggie Foodle brand Pasta Blend Whole Vegetable Noodles to an earlier recall of its Veggie Foodle brand Green Zucchini Whole Vegetable Noodles due to possible Listeria contamination.

Both products were sold in 340g packages in Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and possibly other provinces.

The Pasta Blend Whole Vegetable Noodles have a best before date of Aug. 26, while the best before date for the Green Zucchini Whole Vegetable Noodles is Aug. 28.

Consumers who have the noodles should either throw them out or return them to the store where they were purchased.

There have been no reports of any illnesses linked to the product.

Food contaminated with Listeria may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick. 

Symptoms can include nausea, fever, muscle aches, severe headache and neck stiffness, and in some cases even death.
