The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has issued a recall for several brands of bread and buns due to pieces of metal in the products.

The affected goods were sold in Ontario, Quebec and Newfoundland and Labrador.

A total of 37 products were recalled, including from the brands Country Harvest, D'Italiano, Great Value, No Name and Wonder. A full list of the recalled products can be found on the CFIA's website.Those with affected products should not eat or sell them.

According to the advisory, the recalling firm is Wonder Brands Inc.CBC News reached out for comment.

A CFIA spokesperson said the agency is conducting a food safety investigation and said its own recall of some bread and bun brands is linked to a recall of Sifto brand Hy-Grade salt due to pieces of metal.

"The CFIA is not aware of any reported injuries associated with the consumption of these products," the spokesperson added.

The advisory, which was posted on Monday, did not include how many affected products had been sold. The CFIA included a link to arelated and earlier recall which said anotherfirm, Compass Minerals Canada Corp., was recalling two bulk salt products.

Loblawsaid in a statement to CBC News that the Wonder Brands recall affected its Shoppers Drug Mart, Real Canadian Superstore, No Frills and Zehrslocations in Ontario and Quebec, but that the products have been removed from shelves.

Metro also said the affected bread products had been taken off of its store shelves.

This latest recall comes a week after Giant Tiger issued a voluntary recall of 15 Wonder Brands products in its stores due to "a potential foreign material." Costco also posted a recallon its wholesale site on Oct. 29 for specific Wonder Brands products purchased in Ontario between Oct. 24 and Oct. 25.

Costco said the recalled salt from Compass Minerals had been used in the Wonder products.

Both Giant Tiger and Costco said the recalled products could be returned to stores for a full refund.

Compass Minerals initiated its recall of Sifto Hy-Grade salt on Oct. 25 after a customer reported a "non-organic, foreign material," the company told CBC News in a statement. It found that nine production lots were impacted, goods from which had been distributed to "approximately eight customers in Canada."

The company said it had notified CFIA and those customers, who were told to "quarantine and return the salt product." It did not confirm if Wonder Brands was one of the customers.

"If the product had been used in finished goods that had entered the consumer channel, customers were advised to contact the CFIA," the company stated.

According to the company's website, Sifto Hy-Grade salt is a food-grade salt.
