I was just reading about the Honey Baked Ham company recalling products because of possible listeria contamination. I'm just wondering if these products are available in stores in Canada? The info I read mentioned buying these products in Canada over the phone and internet, but I'm just wondering if you can also buy them in the store. I bought some turkey and roast beef today at Dominion, and I want to make sure it's ok...anyone??

The problems were with mail order products and some sold in retail stores in Ohio.

Retail stores in Canada should be okay, and any bad product has been pulled from shelves by now.

Don't worry.

The Honey Baked Ham Company is recalling 47,000 pounds of its ham and turkey products because they "could" be contaminated with listeria.

The products were sold through the "company’s catalog", on the internet and at stores in "Toledo, Ohio."

The company is recalling:

6 to 11 pound packages of "Sliced and Glazed Fully Cooked Half Ham"
12 to 16 pound packages "Whole Ham'
12 to 16 pound packages "Whole Ham'

I would say if you did not order from the catalog or but in or near Toledo, you have nothing to worry about. And if you did injest it you would most likely know it by now.
It is believed that ingestion of as few as 1,000 cells of Listeria bacteria can result in illness. After ingestion of food ontaminated with Listeria, incubation periods for infection are in the range of 3 to 70 days, usually 4 to 21 days.
Treatment;
Antibiotics effective against Listeria species include vancomycin, ciprofloxacin, linezolid, azithromycin, and cotrimoxazole.
