SACRAMENTO, Calif. – State health officials warned Thursday that alfalfa sprouts sold by a Northern California company to stores and restaurants in California, Nevada, Oregon and Washington may be contaminated with salmonella bacteria.
Salmonella can cause diarrhea, fever and vomiting. Symptoms usually show up within four days after eating contaminated food.
The Department of Health Services said Salad Cosmo was recalling two-and-a-half-ounce plastic containers and one-pound plastic bags of sprouts labeled Salad Cosmo Alfalfa Sprouts with the production codes of 0519 to 0526.
