What Is Salmonella?

Salmonella Enteritidis is a potentially dangerous bacteria that can be found in some foods. It can cause serious and even deadly infections in people. (So far, no illnesses have been reported in conjunction with this recall.)


Symptoms of a Salmonella infection include fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain—and the potential to develop a severe infection in the bloodstream. It’s an especially dangerous foodborne illness for people with weakened immune systems, including young children, elderly individuals, and the immunocompromised.
