The world is now safe from and for tomatoes. It’s those spicy Tex-Mex jalapeños that are not taking the heat for a nationwide salmonella outbreak.

Federal officials investigating a three-month-old salmonella outbreak have isolated the bacteria in a jalapeño pepper from a small distribution facility in McAllen, Tex., and yesterday warned consumers nationwide to avoid eating raw jalapeños or products that contain them until more is known.

So baby, if you like it raw and spicy, too damn bad.
