The recalled product was manufactured on Feb. 20 and 21 and shipped to retail stores in Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin. No other Zachary Confections products are included in the recall, the company said. 

Production of the product has been suspended while federal Food and Drug Administration inspectors and company officials investigate the possible source of the contamination.

Salmonella infections can cause fever, diarrhea, vomiting and abdominal cramping in affected people. Infections usually resolve within several days, but in some people, particularly children, the elderly and those with weakened immune systems, salmonella can cause severe illness requiring hospitalization.
