A major yogurt maker is recalling one of its brands in Canada over concerns that it may cause illness in immunocompromised people.
Danone Canada is asking consumers who bought its Kirkland Signature Probiotic Yogurt to avoid eating the product. The yogurt was sold in 24 packs of 100-gram servings, with the Costco item identification number 1264134.
Consumers can return it to a Costco warehouse to obtain a full refund, the company added. It said the yogurt may have a type of yeast that could cause illness.
"The food safety risk is low as this yeast is not known to grow in refrigerated temperatures," Danone Canada said in a written notice Monday that Costco sent to affected customers and posted on its website. "We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause."
The affected products have "best before" dates Oct. 18, 20 and 22.

This year’s hard winter weather likely left significant damage for many homeowners coming into spring. Building and renovation expert Ryan Thompson spoke to CTV’s Your Morning about some of the biggest areas to focus on around the exterior of your home, to help prevent serious damage after the cold, hard winter.

While Canada is well known for its accomplishments in space — including building the robotic arms used on the Space Shuttle and the International Space Station — the country still has no ability to launch its own satellites. This week, Ottawa committed nearly a quarter‑billion dollars towards changing that.

It’s an enduring stereotype that Canadians are unfailingly nice, quick to apologize even when they have done nothing wrong. But an online urban legend claims the opposite of Canada’s soldiers, painting a picture of troops so brazen in their brutality that international laws were rewritten to rein them in.
