Hundreds of bottles of US liquor were recently pulled off the shelves in Canada due to concerns over an unauthorized recipe change. The incident occurred in various liquor stores across Canada last week when officials discovered that the popular American liquor brands had been altered without proper authorization. The brands involved in this incident include Jack Daniel’s, Jim Beam, and Maker’s Mark.
According to Canadian authorities, the unauthorized recipe change was detected during a routine inspection by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). The CFIA found that the composition of the liquors had been altered, potentially affecting the quality and safety of the products. As a result, the CFIA ordered the removal of all affected bottles from the shelves to prevent any health risks to consumers.
Representatives of the American liquor brands have stated that they are investigating the matter and are cooperating with Canadian authorities to resolve the issue. They have emphasized their commitment to quality and safety and assured consumers that they are taking the necessary steps to address the situation promptly.
Meanwhile, Canadian officials have not disclosed the specifics of the unauthorized recipe changes or how they were detected, citing an ongoing investigation. They have advised consumers who have purchased the affected bottles to return them to the place of purchase for a refund.
The incident has raised concerns among consumers about the safety and regulation of imported liquor products. Both Canadian and US authorities are working together to ensure that all products comply with the necessary standards and regulations to guarantee consumer safety.
