Salmonella Outbreak Linked to Jalapeños | Los Angeles News

Salmonella outbreak tied to jalapeño peppers from a Mexican grower has sickened 345 people across 27 states—with Minnesota and Colorado hit hardest. No deaths, but 36 hospitalized. The CDC linked the outbreak to Coast Citrus Distributors, who recalled the peppers—prompting major Mexican food chains like Chipotle and Qdoba to remove them from menus. Nearly 93% of interviewed patients ate at such restaurants between June 14 and July 14. FDA is still investigating if contaminated peppers reached grocery stores. Symptoms include diarrhea, fever, and cramps—usually resolving in 4–7 days, though vulnerable groups face higher risks.
