As far as the super market situation, I believe they are affected too. I know that Trader Joe's opted to remove tomato offerings from shelves for the time being. I'd play it safe for now and try to avoid tomatoes for now until the FDA can pinpoint where this is all coming from. Hi Elle,

What about washing the lovely fruit? I LOVE tomatoes so this is a problem very near and dear to my heart. Does this extend to tomatoes in super markets? What about washing the lovely fruit?

Our waiter told us that because of the Salmonella Scare, they didn't have any salsa left. I freaked out when I heard this, because I usually snack on grape tomatoes by the hand full when I'm at home. Luckily grape tomatoes aren't affected. Earlier tonight at Chili’s we tried to order the chips and salsa. Our waiter told us that because of the Salmonella Scare, they didn’t have any salsa left.
