Canadian officials are urging consumers to check their homes for organic baby food pouches that could be contaminated with microorganisms. The long shelf life of the products creates a lingering danger through May next year.

Several flavors from Love Child Organics and PC Organics are included in the recall, which was triggered by consumer complaints, according to a notice posted by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). The agency’s recall notice reported “packaging defects that may allow the entry of spoilage microorganisms” are behind the recall.

A separate notice posted by Love Child Brands Inc. on its own website is more specific, saying a manufacturing defect caused puncture holes in the packaging.

Loblaws Inc., which owns the President’s Choice (PC) Organics brand, did not appear to have posted any information on the recall as of Monday night.

“Consumers should not consume the recalled products,” according to the CFIA recall notice. “Check to see if you have recalled product in your home. Recalled products should be thrown out or returned to the store where they were purchased.

“… if spoiled food is inadvertently consumed, it is advisable to watch for symptoms that may include upset stomach, vomiting and diarrhea.”
