The recall says not to consume, use, serve or distribute the recalled products and consumers are advised to throw the eggs away or contact the retailer that sold them.

The agency says food affected with salmonella might not look or smell spoiled but can still make people sick.

For healthy people, short-term salmonella symptoms include fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea, while the infection can be more serious or fatal for young children, pregnant women, elderly people and those with weakened immune systems.

The recall notice is posted here.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Jan. 18, 2025.

Note to readers: A previous version of this story errenously reported the recall applied in Alberta and Saskatchewan, as first reported by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
