Although no illnesses have been reported, Health Canada indicated the dangers associated with salmonella poisoning. "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."
Health Canada also recommends contacting your healthcare provider If you think you became sick from consuming a recalled product. At the moment, the CFIA is conducting a food safety investigation, which may lead to the recall of other products.
