Looks like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has found the root cause of the latest Salmonella Newport outbreak. And it's not alien DNA.

. In this case, poultry-associated means backyard flocks of chickens, ducks, and other feathered friends carrying theand infecting those who get too close to the birds or touching what’s been touched by the birds. This outbreak is presumably unrelated to the onion-linked outbreak, assuming that chickens and ducks haven’t been the ones harvesting and packaging onions at Thomson International, Inc.

So if you want to eat some onions, check the sticker or label first. If you see the name Thomson International, Inc., toss those onions away. Otherwise, you may end up tossing something else 12 to 72 hours later. If you aren’t sure where your onions are from, be on the safe side and get rid of them. Thoroughly clean anything that may have touched your onions. And that’s not a euphemism.

If you are eating out, ask the restaurant where they get their onions. Again, explain to them that this is not a euphemism. If they can’t tell you where they get their onions, don’t chance trying their onions or any dishes that may have onions. Don’t play diarrhea roulette. And if a restaurant is poultry-run with chickens or ducks cooking and serving your food, don’t eat anything.

This is, by far, the best written article on a salmonella outbreak, I have ever read.

Guess it’s good I hate red onions,I haven’t and will never eat those things...

Pro Tip: wash your food (and everything else, for that matter) 🤦🏼‍♂️

raw food isn't healthy.

I don’t understand why people can’t wash their fruits and vegetables thoroughly prior to eating. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Jajajajajaja, hay que lavar y desinfectar todo. No sean brutos!!!

A risk I’m willing to take
