Chipotle Mexican Grill confirmed to ABC News that jalapeno peppers suspected in a salmonella outbreak were shipped to numerous food service retailers operating across multiple states. The company is cooperating with health authorities to determine whether the ingredient played a role in the illness cluster affecting customers.
Health officials are conducting epidemiological investigations to establish a definitive connection between the jalapenos and confirmed salmonella cases. The scope of the distribution has prompted concerns about potential exposure among consumers at various food establishments beyond Chipotle locations.
The investigation remains ongoing as authorities work to identify all affected facilities and individuals who may have consumed products containing the contaminated produce. Chipotle has not disclosed specific details regarding the number of cases or the precise origin of the jalapeno shipments.
