    OTTAWA, Sept. 3 (Xinhua) -- Six more cheeses have been added to a recall list after a salmonella outbreak killed one in Canada's Quebec province.

    The Canadian Food Inspection Agency warned the public on Wednesday not to consume six more cheese products, after three others were recalled last week.

    One person has died and nearly 90 others have fallen ill from the salmonellosis outbreak in the province. The disease was found in three regions of the province, south of Quebec City, the Eastern Townships and central Quebec.

    Last week, provincial Food and Agriculture Ministry recalled a Quebec-made cheese that tested positive for Listeria.

    A nationwide listeria outbreak has killed at least 12 people and prompted recalls of hundreds of food products.
