18 cases of samonella connected to frozen chicken recall

As many as 18 cases of salmonella poisoning have been reported related to the consumption of Janes brand name frozen breaded chicken, the Public Health Agency of Canada says. New cases were identified in British Columbia and Alberta after a warning was issued Tuesday. One person has died but it is not verified that salmonella was the cause. Two Janes brand chicken products were named. They are:

  • Janes Pub Style Chicken Burgers – Uncooked Breaded Chicken Burgers
  • Janes Pub Style Snacks Popcorn Chicken – Uncooked Breaded Chicken Cutlettes

Both were sold in 800-gram packages across Canada. The burger packages carry a date code of 2018 MA and the popcorn chicken package reads 2018 MA 15. They were distributed by Sofina Foods Inc.
