You used to know that canned food was probably infected with botulism because the can looked like it was overinflated, but there have been very few if any reported cases of botulism-infected canned goods for a while thanks to dilligent pasteurization practices. Enough bad bacteria to make you sick will usually not be visible, nor will it have a discernable smell or taste. Always assume that raw meat, especially chicken and pork, is loaded with it. Make sure it never touches anything that will touch other foods, and after handling raw meat always thoroughly wash you hands before touching anything else. Never eat chicken that has not been heated to at least 165° F all the way through or pork that has not been heated to 195° F all the way through. Above all else, always remember: WHEN IN DOUBT, THROW IT OUT!

You know you may have food poisoning if you have diarrhea and vomiting. But many different kinds of illnesses can cause diarrhea, fever, or abdominal cramps. Determining thatSalmonella is the cause of the illness depends on laboratory tests that identify Salmonella in the stool of an infected person. Once Salmonella has been identified, further testing can determine its specific type.
