Illinois is once again part of a widespread food recall, this time involving jalapeños.
The Food and Drug Administration said products with jalapeños distributed by Taylor Foods could be contaminated with salmonella. Taylor Foods is the same company at the center of this summer’s cyclosporiasis outbreak that has made thousands of people sick.
The prepared products, which include pico de gallo salsa and guacamole, were sent to stores in 26 states. Taylor Farms said it voluntarily recalled the products after Coast Citrus Distributors recalled fresh jalapeños earlier this month.
