LACTALIS CANADA, INC — Class II: Specially SELECTED brand Vanilla Creme Brulee; NET WT 3.6oz (103g); INGREDIENTS: CREAM (MI
Lactalis Canada, Inc. has initiated a Class II recall for Specially SELECTED brand Vanilla Creme Brulee, net weight 3.6oz, due to the potential presence of foreign objects, specifically glass. The product is packaged in glass jars and was sold exclusively by ALDI.
This recall affects Lactalis Canada, Inc., ALDI retail locations, and food safety and quality assurance personnel responsible for monitoring dairy-based dessert manufacturing and glass packaging lines.
The classification as Class II indicates that the health hazard is considered remote or reversible, but nonetheless requires formal removal from the market. The mention of glass jars as the packaging format suggests a potential failure in the container integrity or a manufacturing deviation during the filling or capping process. For compliance teams, this underscores the importance of stringent physical hazard controls when utilizing glass packaging.
Regulatory and QA teams should verify that all affected inventory is identified and quarantined. Quality units may need to investigate the glass packaging process or supplier integrity to determine the root cause of the foreign object contamination. Ensure all distribution partners, specifically ALDI locations, have executed the removal of the product from shelves.
