One Degree Organic Foods Sprouted Whole Wheat Flour has been recalled in Canada because of a misleading gluten-free claim, according to a Canadian Food Inspection Agency notification. The notice identifies 907 g packs with UPC 6 75625 10414 5 and five specific best-by dates.

The recall date is 16 October 2026, and the CFIA published the notification on 19 October. Its audience is listed as retail, with the action recorded as a Class 3 recall.

Match the product and best-by code

The affected product is Sprouted Whole Wheat Flour under the One Degree Organic Foods brand. The CFIA table lists these codes:

Best-by date	Size and UPC
19 August 2027	907 g · 6 75625 10414 5
1 September 2027	907 g · 6 75625 10414 5
8 September 2027	907 g · 6 75625 10414 5
21 September 2027	907 g · 6 75625 10414 5
5 October 2027	907 g · 6 75625 10414 5

The notification identifies this product and these codes; it is not a recall of every flour sold by the company. Checking the name, pack size, UPC and date together helps distinguish affected stock.

What the notification says to do

The CFIA instruction is not to use, sell, serve or distribute the affected product. Retailers and other stockholders should consult the official notice when checking inventory. One Degree Organic Foods Inc. is named as the recalling firm.

The notice classifies the issue under food allergens and gluten and states that the gluten-free claim is misleading. It does not describe bacterial contamination or supply an illness count, so neither should be inferred from the recall.

Where distribution is listed

The CFIA lists Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec and Saskatchewan. The notice’s identification number is RA-82809, which can be used to locate the official record and check any later update.

The public record, rather than an illustrative package image, is the reference for identifying the exact product and codes.
