On Sunday, the fresh food producer said that it is pulling over a dozen prepared food items containing jalapeños from retail stores because of concerns over Salmonella, a bacteria that can cause painful food poisoning.

Both companies source jalapeños from a grower in Sinaloa, Mexico, which was identified as the potential source in the outbreak.
