Cucumbers sold to Costco, Walmart, Wegmans and Albertsons have since been recalled for possible contamination with salmonella.

Roughly seven cases of salmonella have been reported on the Front Range, though luckily no cases have shown up here on the Western Slope. Local farmer Charlie Talbott reacts to what seems like an ongoing wave of outbreaks.

The CDC has issued a warning about a Salmonella outbreak linked to cucumbers from Sonora, Mexico, urging consumers to discard recalled products and take appropriate safety measures. The outbreak has affected 68 people in 19 states, with 18 hospitalised but no fatalities.
