Cantaloupe recall: Are foodborne illness outbreaks on the rise?
[unable to retrieve full-text content]A listeria outbreak traced to cantaloupes has killed 13 people and sickened 72. It's the second cantaloupe-related incident this year, as the benign-looking orange melon was responsible for an outbreak of Salmonella Panama that began in February. The CDC has also reported foodborne illness outbreaks this year from papayas, alfalfa sprouts, bologna, hazelnuts, and turkey (twice). Are foodborne illness outbreaks becoming more common?
