Huer Foods Inc. is recalling Western Family brand yogurt covered pretzels and milk chocolate covered pretzels because of possible Salmonella contamination.

Food contaminated with Salmonella bacteria does not usually look, smell, or taste spoiled. Anyone can become sick with a Salmonella infection. Infants, children, seniors, and people with weakened immune systems are at higher risk of serious illness because their immune systems are fragile, according to the CDC.

Anyone who has eaten any of the recalled products and developed symptoms of Salmonella infection should seek medical attention. Sick people should tell their doctors about the possible exposure to Salmonella bacteria because special tests are necessary to diagnose salmonellosis. Salmonella infection symptoms can mimic other illnesses, frequently leading to misdiagnosis.

According to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), the recalled products were distributed in British Columbia and possibly other provinces and territories in Canada.

Recalled products:

Brand Product Size UPC Code
Western Family Yogurt covered pretzels 240 g 0 62639 35287 5 2024AU22N;
2024AU26N
Western Family Milk chocolate covered pretzels 240 g 0 62639 35286 8 2024AU26N

As of the posting of this recall, there have been no reported illnesses associated with the consumption of these products.

Consumers should not consume, use, sell, serve or distribute recalled products.

Symptoms of Salmonella infection can include diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and fever within 12 to 72 hours after eating contaminated food. Otherwise, healthy adults are usually sick for four to seven days. In some cases, however, diarrhea may be so severe that patients require hospitalization.

Older adults, children, pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems, such as cancer patients, are more likely to develop severe illness and serious, sometimes life-threatening conditions.

Some people get infected without getting sick or showing any symptoms. However, they may still spread the infections to others.
