If you think you became sick from consuming a recalled product, call your doctor, the CFIA says.

Food contaminated with Salmonella may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick, the CFIA warns.

The issue is especially concerning for young children, pregnant women, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems as they may contract serious and sometimes deadly infections.

Fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea may occur in healthy people.

Long-term complications may include severe arthritis.
