Two people in Ontario, Canada have died from listeriosis infections linked to a national recall of certain plant-based milks. The recalled products, which include popular milk substitutes based on almonds, oats, cashews, and coconuts, were sold under the Silk and Great Value brands. The outbreak has prompted health authorities, including the Ministry of Health (MOH), to issue warnings and initiate a recall to prevent further cases.
