A brand of Pepperidge Farm Goldfish crackers are being recalled due to salmonella contamination.

The larger packages bear product codes listing several dates for next January and February while the smaller packages display dates for January only.

The federal agency says there have been no reported illnesses linked to eating these products, which should be thrown out or returned to the store where purchased.

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.
