A day after publicly announcing that nine people were sick from Salmonella in sprouts in Kansas and Oklahoma, nine people have been sickened with E. coli O157:H7 in alfalfa sprouts in Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Minnesota health and agriculture officials are looking into an outbreak of foodborne illness tied to alfalfa sprouts produced by the firm Jack & The Green Sprouts.
An E. coli outbreak linked to alfalfa sprouts produced by Jack & the Green Sprouts has sickened seven people in Minnesota and two in Wisconsin, according to the Minnesota Department of Health. Consumers should not eat and retailers and restaurants should not sell or serve Jack & the Green Sprouts brand alfalfa sprouts as E. coli can cause serious illness.
