Frozen raspberries imported from China made hundreds of people sick in Quebec last summer and probably resulted in multiple deaths, according to recent public health report.
The infected fruits led to a wave of recalls in August 2017 by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency because they had been used by a variety of food processors such as brewers, pastry chefs and ice cream makers and had been cooked in hospital cafeterias and residences for seniors.
The raspberries were contaminated by a norovirus, a type of highly contagious virus that often causes long and severe gastroenteritis. At least 724 Quebecers fell ill, a number that may represent just “the tip of the iceberg”
According to Dr. Yves Jalbert, director of public health protection at the Quebec health ministry, it is clear that there were deaths over this period. No specific number has been given. Public health officials in Quebec do not track the progress of each infected patient.
BAN ALL CHINESE FOOD IMPORTS, THESE "PEOPLE" LITERALLY USE SEWAGE TO COOK IN THEIR STREET FOOD TO CUT CORNERS AND MAKE EXTRA MONEY.
Is this that nasty clostridium that kills old people and seeds crystals in the belly that cannot be killed off?

Do actually Canadians feel that this is something acceptable?

Restaurants order frozen fruit and vegetables so you can eat them the whole year, even when they are "off season".
Friendly reminder: eat fresh, buy local.
Matthew Peterson
I eat them off a bush behind my house, they are delicious

Actual raspberries taste an order of magnitude better than anything raspberry flavored.

Fuck raspberries, blackberries are king

frozen is fine, just not frozen from fucking china. the problem here is global trade agreements that distort supply chains to somehow make it seem profitable to free raspberries in china and ship to quebec.

They crumble gloriously in your mouth and are packed with longevity enabling antioxidants you absolute subhuman
They literally distribute trash to the rest of the world and pollute it. Then they manufacture which furthur pollutes but they don't care because it always leaves the country anyways.
