A Salmonella Outbreak Prompts Chipotle to Pull Jalapeños From Some Restaurants

Chipotle voluntarily removed jalapeños from some restaurants after learning of a salmonella investigation, replacing the peppers with product from a different supplier. The company said it acted before any finding tied illnesses to its stores. The move lands during an unusually bad stretch for produce-borne illness, with a separate multi-state cyclospora outbreak linked to lettuce already producing its first deaths.
