Jalapeño Salmonella Recall Updates Implicate Trader Joe’s, Walmart, Whole Foods
Public health officials warn that jalapeño products may be tied to a multistate salmonella outbreak already linked to food sold at Chipotle Mexican Grill and Qdoba. The suspected source is jalapeños from Sinaloa, Mexico, distributed by Coast Citrus Distributors. Restaurants removed the jalapeños, and the FDA is still investigating whether contaminated products reached grocery chains such as Trader Joe’s, Walmart, Whole Foods, and Target.
