Popular garlic powder recalled over bacteria concerns

A popular garlic powder sold at Dollarama stores across Canada is being recalled due to potential microbial contamination, health officials announced this week.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) issued the recall Wednesday for Heavenly Spices garlic powder sold at Dollarama stores nationwide.

The product is being recalled because it may be contaminated with Bacillus cereus, a bacterium that can cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps and watery diarrhea, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

“Do not use, sell, serve or distribute the affected product,” the CFIA said in its recall notice.

The agency classified the recall as a Class 2 event, meaning there is a moderate risk that consuming the product could cause short-term or non-life-threatening health effects.

A Dollarama spokesperson told CTVNews.ca on Friday that customers who purchased the product should throw it away.

“Customers can also contact Dollarama Customer Service directly for a $2.00 e-gift card as a replacement,” the spokesperson said.

The recalled garlic powder was sold in 70-gram containers in stores and online.

According to the FDA, symptoms of Bacillus cereus infection typically last between 24 and 48 hours. The bacterium is commonly found in meat, stews, gravies, vanilla sauce, and cooked rice that has been improperly refrigerated or left at room temperature.

The garlic powder is the latest food product to be pulled from store shelves.

Earlier this week, the FDA announced that General Mills was recalling more than 735,000 packages of Pillsbury bread products over concerns they may contain glass.

Calls for guidance to help Jersey families claim back childcare costs

More guidance for parents claiming back money from the government’s childcare funding scheme is needed, the head of the Jersey Child Care Trust (JCCT) has said.

In February, the government said parents of a child eligible from January to August 2026 could apply for up to £4,180, and parents of children eligible for a full school year from the 1 September 2026 would be able to apply for up to £6,270.

But some families have had problems claiming money back from the States after being told they had provided ‘invalid receipts’ for childcare.

JCCT CEO Fiona Vacher said as it was a pilot scheme, it was likely problems would be discovered.

She said: “We understand that there have been some cases through our contacts with parents and I think that’s around parents submitting bills rather than receipts.

“We knew there would be difficulties and I know the government is just responding to that.”

Vacher said the government could provide “a bit more information for parents about how they and what they submit”.

Deputy Catherine Curtis, the Minister for Education and Lifelong Learning, said 537 applications had been approved for 409 families with £1.4m paid out since the scheme began.

She added that no formal complaints had been recorded but that feedback was “being reviewed to enable continuous improvement”.
