Jelly snacks recalled in Canada over choking hazard


Fortune Distribution Ltd. is recalling Pamana brand Fruit Jelly Snacks and Sunwave brand Mini Fruit Jellies from the marketplace because they may pose a choking hazard.

This recall follows a U.S. recall of the same products.

Small jelly cups have previously been implicated in choking deaths of children.  Depending upon the size, shape and consistency mini-cup jelly products may become lodged in the throat and may be difficult to remove.

The recalled products have been sold in Alberta, Manitoba and Ontario, Canada.

The packages contain mini jelly cups, about the size of coffee creamers.
