Jalapeno Pepper..................Avacado
Salmonella discovery prompts food recall in NC

State agriculture officials have announced a recall of jalapeno peppers and avocados distributed in North Carolina after samples from a food distributor tested positive for salmonella.
They have asked a Charlotte food distributor to recall the items it received from a Texas food supply company because of possible salmonella contamination. The Texas supplier also has been asked to recall the specific products distributed in North Carolina.
The Food and Drug Protection Division and the state Division of Environmental Health are working to determine how many North Carolina outlets received the produce.
Officials say there's no immediate sign that the contamination matches the salmonella strain that has sickened more than 1,200 people nationwide.
