Topline

A salmonella outbreak linked to cucumber items has reached 18 states, according to a Friday update from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which identified the outbreak last week and said recalled cucumbers should no longer be on sale.

Key Facts

The recall targets whole fresh cucumbers grown by Bedner Growers Inc. distributed between April 29 and May 19 to stores and businesses like Target, which issued its recall of the cucumbers on May 19.

The outbreak has infected 45 people and hospitalized 16 across 18 states, according to the CDC, which noted the recalled cucumbers are not organic.

The Food and Drug Administration said the cucumbers “may have been sold individually or in smaller packages, with or without a label that may not bear the same brand, product name, or best by date.”

Cases linked to the recall have been identified in California, Colorado, Kansas, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Massachusetts, Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia and Florida, according to the FDA.
