What happened
ChipotleChipotle Mexican GrillAmerican fast casual Mexican restaurant chain said Tuesday it removed jalapeños from some restaurants after its ingredient-tracing system identified peppers from a common lot as a potential link to a Salmonella outbreak in Minnesota. Minnesota health officials have reported at least 110 illnesses, and Chipotle said the outbreak may involve several food-service retailers in the state. The chain replaced the pulled jalapeños with supplies from different growers while investigators work to determine the source. Chipotle shares closed nearly 10% lower after the announcement.
