If you do have them, throw them away in a sealed package inside a secure trash can, or take them back to the store where you bought them for a full refund. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling these items.

If you ate any of these products, monitor your health for the symptoms of Salmonella food poisoning. Those symptoms usually start within a week after eating contaminated food. If you do get sick, see your doctor.
