  • Today,  @CDCgov  announced that the multistate outbreak of Salmonella infections linked to the consumption of Jule’s Cashew Brie products including vegan or plant-based cheese alternatives is over and these products are no longer available for consumers. https://go.usa.gov/x6eYS
  • There were a total of 20 illnesses in CA, FL, MD and TN. FDA investigation indicated that cashews used by Jule’s Foods were the likely source of contamination.
  • FDA worked with the cashew supplier to ensure that potentially contaminated product was removed from the market and that the firm implemented corrective actions.
  • Enjoyed talking about food safety with my alma mater, University of South Florida (#USF) Go Bulls. @usfcoph  Read here > https://bit.ly/3jUgryA
