break-words\">The recall was initiated following an outbreak investigation into a multistate outbreak of food contaminated with <em>Salmonella<\/em>, which can cause salmonellosis. The foodborne illness can cause diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and fever anywhere from six hours to six days after eating contaminated food.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Illnesses began as early as June 19, 2026, and have continued through July 20, 2026. Taylor Fresh Foods is no longer sourcing products from this farmer and will be filling orders from alternative suppliers.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">What Should I Do If I Have The Affected Products?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The FDA advises consumers, restaurants, and retailers not to eat, sell, or serve the recalled products. You should contact your health care provider immediately if you think you may have developed symptoms consistent with a <em>Salmonella <\/em>infection after eating a dish with jalape\u00f1os. If you froze recalled jalape\u00f1os or are unsure of the company you received them from, you should discard them. Additionally, you should carefully clean and sanitize any surfaces or containers that the product touched to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>You Might Also Like<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taylor Farms can&#8217;t catch a break this summer\u2014and neither can we.
