A chocolate product has been recalled from store shelves in Mississauga, Brampton, and other cities in Ontario and beyond.
UNREAL brand dark chocolate coconut minis have been recalled due to potential Salmonella contamination.
Symptoms of Salmonella include fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea. Severe arthritis is a possible long-term complication.
“Food contaminated with Salmonella may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick,” Health Canada warns. “Young children, pregnant women, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems may contract serious and sometimes deadly infections.”
Residents who have this product should throw it out or return it to the store it was purchased.
