EDITOR’S NOTE: A previous version incorrectly identified one of the items being recalled as breaded chicken cutlettes, which has since been corrected.

Breaded chicken products sold under the Janes brand name are being recalled due to possible contamination from salmonella.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency says the uncooked products include Pub Style Chicken Burgers and Pub Style Snacks Popcorn Chicken.

The burgers carry a code of 2018 MA 12 on the package and the code on the popcorn chicken packages is 2018 MA 15.

Both are sold in 800 gram packages across the country and distributed by Sofina Foods Inc. of Brampton, Ont.

Food contaminated with salmonella may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick.

Young children, pregnant women, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems may contract serious and sometimes deadly infections.
