The FDA is looking into whether a sample they have is part of a current investigation into Salmonella. The states\u00a0affected\u00a0are: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia. The cucumbers they’re recalling are dark green, about 1 \u00bd to 2 inches wide, and 5 to 9 inches long.\n\n
Fresh Start Produce says it’s unlikely that these cucumbers are still being sold, but if anyone has them, they shouldn’t eat them. They should throw them away or return them to where they bought them for a refund.\n\n
The FDA is also checking if this sample is connected to a Salmonella outbreak they’re investigating.\n
Salmonella can\u00a0make you\u00a0sick with fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain. It can be really bad for kids, old people, and those with weak immune systems. But some people don’t show any symptoms, and most healthy people get better within a week without needing special treatment.\n\n
\u201cIn\u00a0rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in\u00a0the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as\u00a0arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis,\u201d Fresh Start Produce said.\n\n
