Chipotle's tomatoes linked to Salmonella outbreak in Minnesota

The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) identified tomatoes as the source of the Salmonella outbreak that sickened numerous customers who ate at Chipotle restaurants in Minnesota since late August.

The company has switched suppliers for its tomatoes and the product was removed from its stores. The MDH says there is no longer a risk to the public. Investigators are working with state and federal officials to trace the tomatoes back to the farm of origin.

There have since been three lawsuits filed against Chipotle by local victims. A total of 64 illnesses have been confirmed up to now.
