Produits Eden Empanadas recalled due to presence of eggs

Québec City, Quebec, Canada

Quebec's Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPAQ), in collaboration with the Food Inspection Division of the City of Montreal and the company Produits Eden, has issued a recall for prepared empanadas. The recall is due to the undeclared presence of eggs, posing a risk to consumers with egg allergies. The issue was discovered during routine inspections by the MAPAQ and the Food Inspection Division of the City of Montreal. The company is currently recalling the products. It should be noted that no cases of allergic reactions associated with the consumption of these foods have been reported to MAPAQ so far.

The recalled product is the empanada prepared and sold by Produits Eden. The empanadas were sold in a plastic tray covered with a transparent plastic film. Specific details include the brand name "Produits Eden", size/weight not specified, batch details not provided, UPC not given, and no best before date mentioned. The exact amount of recalled products has not been stated.

Do not consume recalled products to which you are allergic or sensitive as they may cause a serious or life-threatening reaction; and do not serve, use, sell or distribute recalled products. You must return it to the establishment where you purchased it.
