Canadian Food Inspection Agency issues nationwide recall for Kirkland Signature Greek yogurts

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has announced a nationwide recall of Costco’s Kirkland Signature Greek yogurt due to mold contamination. Although the agency indicates that the mold is not harmful, it does affect the product’s quality and may lead to spoilage.

The affected product bears the UPC number 0 96619 22215 5 and the 8W 173 and has a best-before date of Aug. 10, 2024. The CFIA advises consumers not to use, sell, or distribute the affected product.

The yogurt was sold at Costco locations across Canada including Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec and Saskatchewan.
