Multistate Salmonella Outbreak Sparks Cucumber Recall

  • Authorities in the United States are examining a salmonella outbreak associated with cucumbers distributed by Florida's Bedner Growers between April 29 and May 19, 2025.
  • This outbreak follows a related 2024 incident involving over 550 illnesses from the same grower and distributor, Fresh Start Produce Sales.
  • At least 26 people in 15 states have fallen ill between April 2 and April 28, with nine hospitalizations but no deaths reported according to the CDC.
  • Officials found salmonella bacteria on the Bedner Growers' farm matching patient samples, and contaminated cucumbers were distributed to restaurants, stores, and Florida cruise ships.
  • Retailers should alert consumers to discard tainted cucumbers as symptoms include diarrhea, fever, vomiting, and severe cases may require hospitalization, especially for vulnerable groups.
