CDC links flour to salmonella outbreak hospitalizing 3.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has linked a multi-state salmonella outbreak that has sickened about a dozen people and hospitalized three to flour. It is not clear what brand the outbreak could be related to, but most flour is raw, meaning that it hasn't been treated to kill germs that cause food poisoning. The CDC recommends not eating raw dough or batter, and baked goods should be prepared according to instructions to make sure germs are fully killed. Symptoms of salmonella include diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps.
