Rewritten Article
Listen up, folks! If you've been chowing down on tofu from Les Aliments Wah Hoa, you might want to reconsider. The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Food (MAPAQ) and Montreal's Food Inspection Division have issued a warning.
Apparently, these guys didn't exactly follow the rules when it came to preparing and packaging their tofu. And that ain't good news for us consumers.
The recall includes several types of refrigerated tofu that had been hawked in stores across Quebec until April 24, 2025. So, if you've picked up some tofu between then and now, double-check if it's from Wah Hoa.
MAPAQ has advised that this recall is a precautionary measure. So, if you've got any of this stuff hanging around, best to either return it to the store or chuck it out. Even if it looks and smells fine, it could still be risky business consuming it.
Surprisingly, there haven't been any reports of folks getting sick from these products. But, they're warning that even if it doesn't show signs of spoilage or questionable smells, it might still not be safe to eat.
For those interested, I dug up some more info on the affected tofu varieties. From my research, it looks like the recall involves different types of refrigerated tofu, including soft tofu. Unfortunately, I couldn't find specifics on which retailers were affected. To get the most accurate and current info, it'd be best to hit up MAPAQ or check their official announcements.
