The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued three separate warnings about undeclared ingredients in three products which may create an allergy threat.

The three warnings could potentially effect anyone with allergies to milk, wheat, soy protein and eggs.

The first warning concerns the Jelly Belly Christmas Deluxe Mix, an assortment of candies sold in a 9 oz (255 g) package with a best-before date of Dec. 1, 2012.

The product may contain undeclared milk and wheat products which could result in a life-threatening reaction in anyone with milk or wheat allergies.

There have been no reports of any illnesses associated with the product.

In another warning, the CFIA says anyone allergic to soy protein should refrain from consuming buttermilk and homestyle flavour Aunt Jemima frozen pancakes. The affected products are both in 420 g packages or 410 g whole-grain packages.

Both had recommended-use dates ranging between Nov. 1, 2011 and Oct. 16, 2012.

Finally, the CFIA also warned about Bin Bin Snow rice crackers, which could have undeclared eggs in them. They came in 150 g packages.
