Grocery stores issuing recall of turkeys ahead of Thanksgiving

Turkey Dinner

Health Canada has issued a recall for the Sunrise Farms Young turkey with Giblets, over non harmful microbial contamination and possible spoilage.

The recall says the products were sold in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Saskatchewan but did not indicate when the product was sold.

Canadians are being asked to not use, sell or serve the recalled product that contains a best before date of Oct. 11, 2023.

Sobeys & Safeway both published recall alerts for the product on their website, advising customers who purchased the turkey to return for a full refund.

Sobeys says the precautionary decision was made “out of an abundance of caution.”
