WASHINGTON — It’s OK to eat all kinds of tomatoes again, the U.S. government declared Thursday — lifting its salmonella warning on the summer favorites amid signs that the outbreak, while not over, may be slowing after sickening 1,220 people in 42 states.
Hot peppers still get a caution: The people most at risk of salmonella — including the elderly and people with weak immune systems — should avoid fresh jalapeños, serranos and any dishes that may contain them such as fresh salsa, federal health officials advised.
