In early November, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency issued a warning about non-dairy Coffee Creamers and Coffee Mixes. The concern was that the products contain milk, which is not declared on the label. Consumption of these products may cause a serious or life-threatening reaction in persons with allergies to milk proteins.
