“Do not consume the recalled product if you have celiac disease or other gluten-related disorders,” the agency said in its notice, “as they may cause a serious or life-threatening reaction.”
According to the Health Canada website, celiac disease “or gluten-sensitive enteropathy” is triggered by the “consumption of cereal grains containing gluten.”
Canadians are also being asked to throw the recalled product out or return it to the location where they were purchased from.
