Risks of Salmonella
The most common symptoms—diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps—can occur up to six days after eating contaminated food, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In some cases, the infection can spread beyond the gut and potentially cause arterial infection, endocarditis, and arthritis. It can even be deadly. Children under the age of 5, adults over the age of 65, and anyone with a weakened immune system due to, say, receiving cancer treatments are especially at risk for severe infection. Warning signs of a severe infection include diarrhea and a fever of 102° F or higher; bloody diarrhea; diarrhea that doesn’t improve after several days; the inability to keep liquids down; or severe dehydration (you aren’t urinating much, have a dry mouth, or feel dizzy upon standing). Anyone with these symptoms should contact a doctor.
Consumers with questions about this recall can call the Palmer Candy Company at 800-831-0828 Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CST.
