Posted at June 18, 2008 9:32 AM in .
The last food contamination scare has now spread to five more states and the District of Columbia. Salmonella tainted tomatoes has spread to 28 states thus far. 277 people have fell ill because of the salmonella contamination.
The FDA has yet to determine the source of the salmonella but the agency is looking closely at farms in Mexico and central Florida as the culprit.
Food contamination has been a growing concern for consumers as well as the FDA. The FDA is already overburdened in attempting to deal with dangerous drugs as well as the growing food contamination problem.
