Alfalfa Sprout Outbreak Hits 55 States | Miami News
Description
A major food scare is unfolding as E. coli and salmonella outbreaks linked to alfalfa sprouts from Minnesota’s Everything Sprouts have sickened at least 55 people across 15 states, with four hospitalized. Despite the company’s claims of daily testing and no direct illness reports, the CDC confirms cases spiked between late May and early August — with Minnesota and Wisconsin hardest hit. Compounding the crisis, a separate salmonella outbreak tied to Mexican jalapeños has already made over 400 ill. This serves as a stark reminder: even the freshest produce can harbor hidden dangers — and vigilance is critical from farm to fork.
