Turkey Gravy Recalled Across Four Canadian Provinces Over Undeclared Mustard Allergen

CALGARY, October 12, 2026: A turkey gravy product distributed across four Canadian provinces has been recalled after authorities confirmed that it contains mustard, an allergen that was not declared on the product’s packaging.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) announced that Kevin’s Natural Foods turkey gravy is being removed from the market because of potential health risks to consumers with mustard allergies or sensitivities.

The affected product was distributed in Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, prompting a food safety warning for consumers and retailers throughout Western Canada.

According to the federal agency, the recall was initiated by the company after the undeclared allergen was identified.

Mustard is recognized as a priority food allergen in Canada, and products containing it must clearly identify the ingredient on their labels to protect individuals who may experience allergic reactions.

Consumers with mustard allergies could face health complications if they unknowingly consume a product containing the ingredient. Reactions can range from mild symptoms to severe allergic responses requiring immediate medical attention.

The CFIA confirmed that no allergic reactions or illnesses associated with the recalled gravy had been reported at the time of the announcement.

Nevertheless, authorities are advising anyone with a mustard allergy or sensitivity not to consume the affected product.

Retailers and distributors have also been instructed not to sell, serve or distribute the recalled gravy.

The food inspection agency is conducting a followup investigation to ensure that the affected product is removed from store shelves and distribution channels.

Officials are also verifying that businesses involved in selling the gravy are complying with the recall requirements.

The incident highlights the importance of accurate food labelling, particularly for consumers who depend on ingredient information to manage potentially serious allergies.

Customers who have purchased Kevin’s Natural Foods turkey gravy in the affected provinces are encouraged to check the official recall notice and follow the recommended safety instructions.

Consumers can obtain further information through the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s food recall and safety alert system.

The agency continues to monitor the situation as the company works to remove the affected gravy from the Canadian marketplace.
