Salmonellosis is a foodborne disease caused by the consumption of contaminated food by Salmonella species. Salmonella is a well-documented pathogen known to occur in a wide range of foods, especially poultry products.

Salmonella is often spread when we eat poorly cooked foods. Raw or undercooked eggs, meat and poultry are particularly high risk foods. Thoroughly cooking food will kill Salmonella.
