VANCOUVER — A recall of several brands of nutrition bars in the United States has spilled over into B.C.
The bars may be contaminated with salmonella, an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections -- especially in young children and the elderly.
No illnesses have yet been reported.
Creative Energy Foods, based in Oakland Calif., is recalling bars with a variety of brand names.
Just over 10,000 bars under the name Three Carb Bar were distributed in Canada by Nutrition Zone, a weight-loss and health food store.
Nutrition Zone has been alerted to the recall and the store has attempted to contact customers who bought the bars.

W. Walterssaid "I must be missing something here but with all the IED's why are we still doing foot patrol." Well Mr. Walters the terrain is extremely complex in a lot of the areas of Panjwaii and Zari where Canadians are mainly operating, our armoured vehicles cannot fit in or traverse this terrain, so...we walk! It's also a better way to show presence which is important! Besides these troops and the reporter were driving in an armoured vehicle, probably a LAV 3, there would never be this many dead and injured if they were on foot patrol, so in a lot of ways foot patrols are safer!
