Quaker Oats recall over potential salmonella contamination spurs Canada-wide class-action lawsuit

A Vancouver-based law firm has filed a proposed Canada-wide class-action lawsuit against The Quaker Oats Company and PepsiCo Canada after its Quaker products were recalled in Canada due to potential salmonella contamination. Slater Vecchio LLP launched the lawsuit “on behalf of all persons in Canada” who purchased any of the 38 Quaker products that were recalled, or who believe they got sick after eating the products. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency issued the initial recall on Jan. 11, 2024, for 38 Quaker products, including granola and cereal, and then later recalled more than 30 yogurt and parfait products that contained Quaker granola. “Canadians trust manufacturers to produce packaged foods that can safely be consumed without the risk of illness from contamination,” Sam Jaworski, a partner at Slater Vecchio LLP, said in a statement.
