Out of curiosity, anyone know where these are made? Quaker's plan in Peterborough ON makes some of these products.

Contamination like this is usually due to sanitation in packaging, since most products are cooked and sterilized before they're packed. Either the packing areas got contaminated, or a downstream provider of packing materials did. Either way, bad day for everyone involved.

According to their info page Quaker Canada runs two plants, one in Peterborough like you mentioned, and the other in Trenton.

I live in Peterborough, which is why I was curious. I can't find any information about which products, or production-lots of products are made where.

I've been in the Trenton plant, they aren't made there.
