A brand of chicken sausage meat is being recalled in B.C. over undeclared wheat.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency says its testing of Legends Haul brand Chicken Pesto Parm Sausage found the ingredient which is not listed on the packaging.

The CFIA is telling people, including those with celiac disease or other gluten-related disorders, not to consume the products.

The agency warns consuming recalled products that you may be allergic or sensitive to may result in a serious or life-threatening reaction.

Recalled products can either be thrown out or returned to where they were bought.
