Malichita cantaloupes linked to Salmonella outbreak in British Columbia
3 weeks ago
British Columbia, Canada
The BC Centre for Disease Control (BCCDC), in collaboration with regional health authorities, the Public Health Agency of Canada, and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency are investigating a Salmonella outbreak linked to Malichita brand cantaloupes. To date, there have been 8 confirmed cases of a rare strain of Salmonella in British Columbia since mid-November. These cases are primarily located within the Vancouver Coastal Health, Fraser Health, and Island Health regions.
The investigation revealed a correlation between the cases and recalled cantaloupes in Canada and the United States. Initially detected by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency on November 1, the recall was updated on November 14 to include British Columbia. Consumers who acquired these cantaloupes between October 11 and November 14, 2023, are warned to discard them. The culprit bacterium, Salmonella soahanina or Salmonella sundsvall, was discovered in the recalled cantaloupes through genetic sequencing.
To prevent further spread, the BCCDC advised to dispose of any Malichita cantaloupes or cantaloupes with no identifiable origin. Contaminated foods may not show noticeable spoilage but can still cause illness. Therefore, proper hygiene practices, like washing hands and cooking surfaces, are crucial. Individuals feeling unwell, particularly those with diarrhea or vomiting symptoms, are asked to avoid preparing food.
In case you are experiencing Salmonella symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and fever, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.

We bought a fruit basket that contained a cantaloup from a local organization. That's on October 25th. We served it to our 20 months old son, he loved it and ate the entire thing in two days. That same weekend he started to experience intermittent fever, and... See More Halloween the Diahrea started. Two days after there was blood in his stool. After a call to 811 (health line) we went straight to the emergency. There we waited 10 hours and he kept getting worse. He was on intravenous treatment for 10 days. Followed by 10 days of oral mega doses (8ml/3 times a day) for an additional 10 days. It was a hard time, and he still has so post traumatic reactions (doesn't like to be touched where the catheter was), and his digestion is not back to it's former state. We are simple thankful that it was caught in time. The fever started I bought a fruit basket on October 25. This one contained a cantaloupe. We cut it and served it to our 20-month-old son, who ate it over two days. Two days later, he started to have an interminent fever, and then diarrhea occurred. At first he seemed to keep his spirits up but then there was blood in his stool. From that moment on we were in the hospital and for 1 week I had to be on intravenous treatment. The battery was in his blood, he had septicemia. Once these were completed, he was prescribed a mega dose of antibiotic (8ml 3 times a day) for an additional 10 days. He was completely traumatized, so were we. His intestinal flora has not fully recovered, and he still has some post-traumatic reactions. I wish that to no one. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Fever See Less
