Minnesota Alfalfa Sprouts – Salmonella Lawyer

State and federal health officials have linked a multistate Salmonella outbreak to eating raw alfalfa sprouts.

In response to this outbreak, FDA and CDC are recommending that consumers not eat raw alfalfa sprouts, including sprout blends containing alfalfa sprouts, until further notice.

Given the far-reaching nature of the outbreak, CDC suspects that certain alfalfa seeds are contaminated with Salmonella Saintpaul.
