U.S. Grown Jalape o and Serrano Peppers Not Connected to Salmonella Saintpaul Outbreak
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is advising consumers that jalape o and serrano peppers grown in the United States are not connected with the current Salmonella Saintpaul outbreak. However, the FDA continues to advise consumers to avoid raw jalape o peppers--and the food that contains them--if they have been grown, harvested or packed in Mexico.
