NEW YORK (AP) — Jalapeño peppers linked to a multistate salmonella outbreak have been traced back to a grower in Sinaloa, Mexico, federal officials say. At least 345 people in 27 states have been reported getting sick from the salmonella strain linked to the jalapeños. Chipotle Mexican Grill said Tuesday that it had removed jalapeños from some of its restaurants. Salad chain Sweetgreen said Thursday it also removed jalapeños from its menu, where they are an ingredient in two of its 15 dressings. It was more bad news for Sweetgreen, which also saw sales plummet in July because of customer concerns over the cyclospora outbreak linked to iceberg lettuce.
