Kendamil brand Infant Formula with whole milk is being recalled in Canada because of cereulide toxin.
Cereulide is a toxin produced by some strains of Bacillus cereus, according to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. Cereulide is highly heat stable meaning it is unlikely to be deactivated or destroyed by cooking or when preparing infant formula for consumption.
This recall was triggered by a recall in another country.
There have been no reported illnesses in Canada associated with the consumption of this product.
The recalled product was sold at Costco stores nationwide and online.
