The Quebec Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPAQ), in collaboration with the Montreal Food Inspection Division and Boucherie Notre-Dame, has issued a warning about the presence of undeclared wheat (gluten) and milk in various sausages prepared and sold by Boucherie Notre-Dame, located at 3035 Notre-Dame West … See More
Street in Montreal. The recall was initiated by the company in agreement with MAPAQ and the Montreal Food Inspection Division as a precautionary measure. The warning is specifically for individuals who suffer from wheat or milk allergies, celiac disease, or other gluten-induced illnesses. As of now, no allergic reactions associated with the consumption of these products have been reported to MAPAQ.

The products in question are the "Mergez" and "Italiennes Fortes" sausages.
- The "Mergez" sausages contain wheat.
- While the "Italiennes Fortes" sausages contain both wheat and milk.
These allergens are not declared on the product labels.

If you have this product at home, do not consume it and we recommend returning it to the store where it was purchased.

If individuals with milk allergies, celiac disease, or other gluten-induced illnesses consume food with undeclared gluten, they may experience adverse reactions. For those with milk allergies, symptoms can range from mild (hives, stomach upset) to severe (anaphylaxis). For individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, consuming gluten can trigger a harmful immune response that damages the lining of the small intestine, leading to symptoms like diarrhea, abdominal pain, and fatigue.

If you or a loved one are harmed or experiencing any symptoms, it is important to report it. Reporting can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care
