Cucumbers Recalled in 14 States Due to Salmonella Risk

The FDA has announced a recall of cucumbers distributed by Fresh Start Produce Sales Inc. in 14 states due to potential salmonella contamination. The recall follows a positive test for salmonella by the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture. Consumers are advised to check with their grocers, though it is unlikely the affected cucumbers reached stores. Salmonella can cause serious infections, particularly in vulnerable populations.
