The Food and Drug Administration has identified a new outbreak of Salmonella infections.

The FDA’s only other active investigation at this time involves lead in cinnamon used in applesauce products market for children. As of April 10 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was reporting 519 children across 44 states with elevated levels of lead after eating the implicated cinnamon applesauce.
All cinnamon applesauce sold under the Wanabana, Schnucks and Weis brand names has been recalled. The implicated cinnamon applesauce was produced by Astrofoods in Ecuador with the cinnamon having been supplied by a third party.
Officials with the FDA have said the current theory is that the cinnamon was intentionally contaminated with lead to make it heavier and therefore more profitable.
