Why 12K pounds of Maple Leaf Foods bacon sold in Northwest were recalled

Claim: In July 2026, Maple Leaf Foods recalled more than 12,000 pounds of bacon sold in the Pacific Northwest. According to one popular Instagram post (archived) shared on July 28, a company called Maple Leaf Foods recalled more than 12,000 pounds of bacon imported from Canada to the United States. Notably, the FSIS said there had been "no confirmed reports of illness or injury" tied to the recalled bacon. FSIS said the recalled bacon was sent to Grocery Outlet distributors and retailers in Idaho, Oregon and Washington. That means the recalled bacon was inspected in Canada but has not been inspected since entering the United States.
