Have tomatoes infected with salmonella reached California?

Question

Have tomatoes infected with salmonella reached California?

Answer 1

No one knows because no one can track where the tomatoes came from and where they went.

Answer 2

No not yet!!

Answer 3

Yes and maybe.

The CDC has confirmed cases of Salmonella Saintpauli in California.  That is the variety of salmonella involved in the tomato outbreak.

What they have NOT figured out is where the contaminated tomatoes are coming from ... but they think it's central Florida or Mexico.

And it's the round loose tomatoes, not the ones sold still on the vine.
