Serrano Chiles Join Do Not Eat List
The Food and Drug Administration has found the rare Saintpaul strain of salmonella in some fresh serrano chiles from Mexico, and that the bacteria were in irrigation waters, and so is warning consumers not to eat them or raw jalapeno peppers from Mexico. That leaves me with the question of how to know for sure a pepper's country of origin.
