If you’ve recently bought tomatoes, it’s time to double-check your packaging. Two separate recalls have been issued for tomatoes distributed across 14 states due to potential salmonella contamination.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, “Salmonella, or salmonellosis, is an infection with Salmonella bacteria that causes diarrhea, fever and stomach pains. Salmonella usually goes away on its own in a few days. You should drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration. You can reduce your risk of salmonella with safe food handling habits and by washing your hands after touching animals.”
