A home delivery meal service may be delivering salmonella-contaminated food to customers’ doors.

Public health officials are investigating a multistate outbreak of Salmonella cases linked to products from Metabolic Meals.

As of Friday night, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) was tracking 16 cases spanning ten states. Two of those are in Georgia, and at least 7 patients were hospitalized.

“This outbreak may not be limited to the states with known illnesses, and the true number of sick people is likely much higher than the number reported. This is because many people recover without medical care and are not tested for Salmonella,” wrote the CDC.
