They split the difference, here, when it comes to farmer's market vendors. Food doesn't have to be prepared in a commercial kitchen, but you do need to successfully pass a recognized food safety training course.

Just one of the things I appreciate about brassicas...

It's a "greatest hits" day: pistachios and enoki mushrooms. https://recalls-rappels.canada.ca/en/alert-recall/baekdu-peak-brand-enoki-mushroom-recalled-due-listeria-monocytogenes https://recalls-rappels.canada.ca/en/alert-recall/various-pistachios-and-pistachio-containing-products-recalled-due-salmonella-5

These were my crop from yesterday. The usual daily pistachio recall, and the formula recall from the US has been extended to Canada. Fortunately it was a fringe brand, with relatively minimal market presence. https://recalls-rappels.canada.ca/en/alert-recall/various-pistachios-and-pistachio-containing-products-recalled-due-salmonella-5 https://recalls-rappels.canada.ca/en/alert-recall/byheart-whole-nutrition-infant-formula-may-be-unsafe-due-potential-presence-dangerous

I don't typically post about US recalls, but I'll make an exception for this one. Most of us are past the new-parent stage, but have kids (or grandkids) who aren't, so... formula's being recalled for botulism. https://www.cdc.gov/botulism/outbreaks-investigations/infant-formula-nov-2025/index.html
