Question

Which food item has been associated with salmonella typhi?

Answer 1

Although salmonella typhi is known to be a disease caused by the ingestion of infected fecal matter, that fecal matter is often found on food items because of improper hygiene on the part of field workers harvesting crops which are then possible eaten raw. Also it can be passed on by food handlers in restaurants practicing improper bathroom hygiene. But it has been known to be carried in shellfish that were exposed to sewage in the water. So if you had to name a specific food that would be shellfish.
