Public health officials have traced the salmonella outbreak to jalape\u00f1os grown in Sinaloa, Mexico, and distributed by Coast Citrus Distributors, which has agreed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mysanantonio.com\/food\/article\/egg-recall-texas-22357137.php\" data-link=\"native\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"\">recall<\/a> the products.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Wholesalers, restaurants and food service companies across the United States received the salmonella-linked jalape\u00f1os, including Chipotle and QDOBA. Chipotle switched suppliers for its jalape\u00f1os on July 29, and QDOBA reportedly pulled jalape\u00f1os from its menu altogether as of July 28.

Symptoms of a salmonella infection include fever, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea.
