Sobeys Recalls Turkeys Sold in Western Canada

In western Canada, some Thanksgiving dinners may encounter a gap in their menu options. On Friday, Sobeys issued a recall notice for Sunrise brand Grade A fresh turkeys weighing between five and eight kilograms, with a best before date of Oct. 11.

The grocery chain sent an email to customers, urging them to return the affected turkeys to a nearby Sobeys store to receive a full refund. This message was also extended to Safeway and FreshCo customers.

Sobeys explained their decision, stating, “Out of an abundance of caution, we have chosen to proactively remove all Sunrise Grade A Fresh Turkeys (in the five to eight-kilogram size range, Best Before Oct. 11) from our store shelves in western Canadian locations (including FreshCo, IGA, Safeway, Sobeys, and Thrifty Foods) as this product does not meet our quality standards,” according to a spokesperson.

The federal government’s recalls and safety alerts webpage did not feature any turkey-related recalls on the evening of that Friday.
