When food is contaminated with salmonella it may not look or smell spoiled but can still cause sickness. Those with weakened immune systems are especially at risk of contracting serious illness and deadly infections. Healthy individuals may experience short-term symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea. Long-term complications may include severe arthritis.
