The Canadian Food Inspection Agency says illnesses have been reported among people who ate meat being recalled by a Toronto deli.

The CFIA says Lady York Foods is recalling its sliced Mortadella products due to possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination.

The recall applies to all Mortadella products sliced and sold from the deli counter at Lady York Foods between Dec. 2, 2014 and Feb. 24, 2015.

The CFIA says the meat was distributed in Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and possibly nationally.

Food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes may not look or smell spoiled but the CFIA says it can still make people sick.

Symptoms can include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches, severe headache and neck stiffness.

The CFIA did not say how many people had reported illness related to the recalled product.
