Raw Onions Are Linked to a Salmonella Outbreak in 37 States

Raw Onions Are Linked to a Salmonella Outbreak in 37 States

Stop what you’re doing and check your onions. Then, depending on what you see—chuck ’em, compost ’em, whatever you need to do! There is a massive (and I mean, massive) outbreak of salmonella in raw onions that has already impacted 37 states in the U.S. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, consumers should refrain from buying or eating any whole fresh red, white, or yellow onions if they were imported from Chihuahua, Mexico and distributed by ProSource Inc. So how do you know if your onions are impacted? If you purchased a bag of onions (generally sold in three- or five-pound quanties), there should be a tag that tells you where the onions were grown and which company distributed them. If they were grown in the U.S., they're safe (for now). However, if the label says that they were grown in Chihuahua, Mexico, get rid of 'em. Furthermore, if you only purchased one or two onions from a large grocery store display, there is no easy way to know where they're from. In that case, it's safest to assume they're contaminated.

Per the CDC’s food safety alert, which was announced on Wednesday, October 20th, more than 600 people have experienced food poisoning after consuming the onions and over 100 people have been hospitalized. At this time, the onions have not been formally recalled and there have been no deaths.
