"Do not eat, use, sell or serve any recalled peaches from Prima Wawona from the United States, or any products made with these peaches," warns the government agency.

The agency reminds Canadians that food contaminated with salmonella may not look or smell bad, but it can still make you seriously ill. 

Peaches grown in Canada are not believed to be associated with the outbreak.
