Common Sources of Salmonella in Milwaukee

Salmonella bacteria can contaminate food at any point in the supply chain. Common sources of infection include:

Undercooked Poultry and Eggs

Chicken, turkey, or eggs that are not fully cooked remain a major risk.

Fresh Produce

Leafy greens, tomatoes, and fruits washed in contaminated water can carry salmonella.

Unpasteurized Dairy Products

Raw milk and soft cheeses made without pasteurization can be unsafe.

Processed and Packaged Foods

Products like frozen meals, nut butters, and deli meats have been linked to past outbreaks.

Improper Food Handling

Cross-contamination in restaurant kitchens, catering services, or grocery stores can expose many people to the bacteria.

Animal Contact

Handling reptiles, chicks, or visiting petting zoos may also lead to exposure.

Symptoms of Salmonella Poisoning

Salmonella symptoms usually appear between 6 hours and 6 days after exposure. Common symptoms include:

• Diarrhea: Sometimes bloody and severe
• Abdominal cramps: Often intense and persistent
• Fever and chills: A frequent early indicator
• Nausea and vomiting: Can lead to dehydration
• Headaches and fatigue: Often accompany gastrointestinal symptoms

High-risk individuals, such as infants, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems, may require hospitalization and face serious complications like septicemia or reactive arthritis.
