The Halloween treats are o.k. but other chocolate bars and chocolate produced by Hershey Canada are being recalled.  There is a concern of salmonella.  

There haven’t been any cases  of illness reported, and food tainted with salmonella may not look or smell spoiled but it can cause flu like symptoms: fever, severe headache, vomiting nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea.  These symptoms could be serious and life-threatening in young children, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems. .

Only products with date codes from 6417 to 6455, produced from October 15 to November 10, are affected by this alert. The date codes can be found on the back of each package.

Here is the complete list of  recalled product:
