Plain-English summary
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has issued a public health alert regarding meat and poultry products containing FDA-regulated jalapeños. These jalapeños have been recalled due to possible Salmonella contamination.
The issue was identified after the FDA notified FSIS that several FSIS-regulated establishments received a recalled ingredient. FSIS expects more downstream products to be identified as the investigation into the ingredient recall continues.
While there have been no confirmed reports of illness from FSIS-regulated products containing these jalapeños, Salmonella can cause salmonellosis. Symptoms include diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and fever. Consumers are urged not to eat these products and should instead throw them away or return them to the place of purchase.
