The affected product has UPC 6 28250 50659 4. It was sold in British Columbia, Alberta and online.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency says the recall followed a consumer complaint. One allergic reaction has been reported.

The CFIA is continuing its investigation and checking that the recalled products have been removed from stores. More products could be added to the recall.
