Human salmonella illnesses associated with expanded sprout recall

The CFIA is verifying that the industry is removing the recalled products from the marketplace.  It also advises:

  • If you think you might be sick from consuming a recalled product, consult your doctor.
  • Check to see if you have the recalled products in your home or establishment.
  • Recalled products should be thrown out or returned to the location where they were purchased.

Food contaminated with Salmonella may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick. Young children, pregnant women, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems may contract serious and sometimes deadly infections. Healthy people may experience short-term symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea. Long-term complications may include severe arthritis.
