A Multi-State Salmonella Outbreak Is Linked to These Frozen Beans — Are They in Your Freezer?

To date, there have been 11 confirmed illnesses across 10 states. The U.S. is experiencing a massive Salmonella outbreak, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) believes it has finally pinpointed the to the FDA, the outbreak was first identified in October 2024, following the first reported case of illness. The most recent individual to fall ill as part of the outbreak was on June 24. The FDA revealed on July 17 that the source of the outbreak is Chetak LLC's Deep-brand frozen sprouted mat (moth) beans and frozen sprouted moong (mung) beans. The agency identified the problem through routine sampling. "The product samples tested positive for Salmonella, and whole genome sequencing analysis determined that the Salmonella present in the samples matched the strain causing illnesses in this outbreak," the FDA added. It noted that, to date, 11 people have been reported ill in connection with the outbreak from 10 different states, including Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and Washington. In response to the news, the brand and the FDA issued a recall notice for several of its products. The recall includes the following:Deep-brand Sprouted Mat (Moth) in one-pound (454 grams) packages with the following lot codes printed on the back side of the bag: IN 24330, IN 25072, IN 25108, IN 24353, IN 25171, IN 24297, IN 25058, IN 25078, IN 24291, IN 25107, IN 24354, IN 24292 Related: America Has a Growing Food Safety Crisis No One Is Talking About Deep-brand Sprouted Moong (Mung) in one-pound (454 grams) packages with the following lot codes printed on the back side of the bag: IN 24330, IN 25072, IN 25108, IN 24353, IN 25171, IN 24297, IN 25058, IN 25078, IN 24291, IN 25107, IN 24354, IN 24292 Salmonella, the FDA explained, is a "group of bacteria that can cause gastrointestinal illness and fever called salmonellosis." It added that it can spread through food handlers who "do not wash their hands and/or the surfaces and tools they use between food preparation steps, and when people eat raw or undercooked foods." While most people infected with Salmonella recover without treatment, those with weakened immune systems, children, or the elderly are especially vulnerable to severe cases. Usually, symptoms appear within 12 to 72 hours after infection and can include diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps, according to the FDA. Though more severe cases of salmonellosis may involve a "high fever, aches, headaches, lethargy, a rash, blood in the urine or stool, and in some cases may become fatal." According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, "approximately 450 persons in the United States die each year from acute salmonellosis." If you've purchased the product, the FDA recommends that you discard it immediately. If you've already consumed the product and become ill, contact your healthcare provider right away.

FDA Announces Major Recall of Popular Chocolate Item

It's a good thing the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is staying on top of the latest recalls, because knowing about new recalls impacts people's lives. The sooner you find out about an item that falls under a recall, the quicker you can get rid of it and keep your friends and family safe. "A recall is a method of removing or correcting products that are in violation of laws administered by the Food and Drug Administration," the FDA notes. They add that a recall is a voluntary action taken by manufacturers and distributors to protect the health of the public and keep them away "from items that offer a "risk of injury or gross deception or are otherwise defective." Now, the FDA has announced a chocolate spread recall due to salmonella contamination. According to the Mayo Clinic, salmonellosis "is a common bacterial disease that affects the intestinal tract." The clinic adds that most people "develop diarrhea, fever and stomach (abdominal) cramps within 8 to 72 hours after exposure." The Cleveland Clinic adds that "salmonella is an infection with salmonella bacteria that causes diarrhea, fever and stomach pains." The recall is for Dubai chocolate spread, which is sold nationwide. World Market recalled its Emek Spread Pistachio Cacao Cream with Kadayif sold from June 11 to July 9, according to a press release from the FDA. The spread's jar is labeled with "Dubai" and contains similar ingredients to the Dubai chocolate bar, but with kadayif and pistachio paste. The product was also packaged in clear glass jar with the date code stamped on the top of the lid. Now, the recall has been raised to a Class 1 alert, which means a "reasonable probability" that injecting the spread could cause serious illness or even death, according to the FDA. The recall was announced after samples of the food item tested positive for salmonella, the FDA added. The good news is that no illnesses have been reported so far. Those who have the item are urged to throw it away as soon as possible or return it to World Market for a full Announces Major Recall of Popular Chocolate Item first appeared on Men's Journal on Jul 21, 2025 Solve the daily Crossword

West Midlands named worst for common travel-related illness and reason why

The West Midlands has been named the worst place for cases of a common travel-related sickness bug. The region recorded the highest number of travel-related gastrointestinal (GI) infections in England, according to the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA). There were 477 cases in the West Midlands, representing 17.6% of the total cases in England.

However the region also recorded the second highest rate of enteric fever (typhoid/paratyphoid) nationally, with 67 cases. These illnesses are caused by things like salmonella bacteria, which is more common in countries with less developed sanitary facilities. They can be spread through food and drink, including shellfish affected by sewage entering drinking water. However infections are preventable in all of these cases. Meanwhile, malaria also remains a significant risk for people travelling to endemic areas, with the West Midlands accounting for around 9% of UK cases in 2023 (181 out of 2,106), an increase of 27% on 2022. The reasons for travelling cited by UK cases were visiting friends and relatives (74%), travelling for holiday (20%) and travelling for work (6%). Elsewhere, travel-related measles cases have increased significantly since 2022, reflecting global trends of the disease and increasing levels of travel following the pandemic, with children under 10 most affected. Recent outbreaks have been seen in several other European countries including Romania, France, Belgium, Italy and the Netherlands. Katie Spence, UKHSA Regional Deputy Director West Midlands, said: "The West Midlands is a central transport hub and has a diverse population, so there is a lot of international travel, increasing risk of travel-related infections. "The main infections we are seeing in the region are gastrointestinal and enteric fever, which are preventable, with risk greatly reduced by practicing good hand hygiene and making sure fresh food is rinsed well in clean water. "Measles remains an ongoing risk, both in England and abroad, particularly for children, so it's important to make sure everyone is up to date with their MMR vaccines. "Certain countries also require specific vaccinations, so you should arrange these with your GP surgery in good time before travelling. "The Travel Health Pro website, has detailed country-specific information, including what vaccines to get, any important medication such as malaria tablets, and how to avoid traveller's diarrhoea and other serious gastrointestinal infections. "We want everyone in the West Midlands to enjoy a safe and healthy holiday season, whether at home or abroad. "So whether you're visiting family and friends, taking a mini-break, going somewhere you know well or a more exotic location, there are simple steps you can take before, during and after travel to reduce your risk of picking up an unwanted infection, ruining your trip and having to take time off work or school when you get back. "From vaccinations to basic hygiene, practising safe sex, and being aware of symptoms, there are easy ways to stay well."
