The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued several alerts warning the public not to consume certain Daniella brand mangoes because they may be contaminated with Salmonella Braenderup bacteria.
Consumers may find it difficult to determine which of the Daniella brand mangoes, product of Mexico, are affected because only certain shipments have been recalled. Consumers are advised to contact the retailer to find out if they have the affected mangoes. If you are unsure whether a product is part of the recall, the safest course of action is to throw it away.

There are also confirmed Salmonella Braenderup illnesses in multiple states in the United States. The U.S. investigation indicates that mangoes are a likely source for illnesses there.
The CFIA will continue to work with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (USFDA), the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and state officials as part of its food safety investigation. The CFIA will continue to update the public on the progress of this investigation as more information becomes available.
