A foodborne illness investigation led by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, in collaboration with the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), public health officials across different states, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), has resulted in a nationwide recall of eggs linked to a multi-state "Salmonella" outbreak.

The ongoing investigation at two Chubby Cattle restaurant locations—in Little Tokyo and Rowland Heights—identified a strong link between reported S"almonella" illnesses and eggs distributed by Country Eggs, LLC. [ [link removed] ]

*About Salmonella*

"Salmonella, "also called "salmonellosis, "is a bacterial infection often linked to raw or undercooked meat, poultry, eggs and unpasteurized milk and cheese products. This infection can also spread through contact with people or animals that are sick with S"almonella". Foods that get contaminated with S"almonella "usually come from animals (beef, poultry, raw milk, or eggs), but any food can become infected with "Salmonella".

Symptoms include:


* Diarrhea (often watery, sometimes bloody)
* Abdominal cramps or pain
* Fever
* Nausea
* Vomiting
* Headache
* Body aches

The symptoms of S"almonella "are mild in most people, but can be serious in infants, younger children, elderly, and persons with health problems. In rare cases, "Salmonella "infection can result in more severe illnesses such as arthritis, arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms) and endocarditis (inflammation of the heart’s muscles).

Most people will get better within five to seven days without treatment, unless the infection becomes severe. Some may need to drink more fluids, like water, broth, or electrolyte drinks, to stay hydrated during their illness.

Residents who believe they became sick from eating or drinking something can file a report using this link: [link removed]. [ [link removed] ] Lab results are not needed to file a report.
