More cantaloupe products are being recalled in B.C. over possible Salmonella contamination, although the best-before dates have passed.

Health Canada says fresh-cut cantaloupe from Frankly Fresh Salads and Fresh Street Market, as well as unlabeled cut products, should not be consumed or sold.

The recall covers items with best-before dates from Nov. 2nd to the 23rd.
