Description

Alfalfa sprouts are causing a major health scare across multiple states, with 17 confirmed cases of E. coli and Salmonella in Wisconsin alone — all tied to Everything Sprouts and Calco brands. One person is already hospitalized, and officials urge Wisconsinites to immediately check their refrigerators and discard any affected sprouts. Symptoms include stomach cramps, diarrhea, and fever — potentially leading to serious complications like kidney failure. The outbreak also impacts Minnesota with 23 cases. Health authorities are working with the CDC and FDA to track the source. If you’ve eaten these sprouts, watch for symptoms appearing within days — and stay tuned for updates from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services.
