Pesto, like other jarred foods, could be the source of food poisoning. In 2013, more than 50 individuals in Italy fell ill after consuming pesto that had been contaminated with Clostridium botulinum. Symptoms associated with a Clostridium botulinum infection include diarrhea, blurred vision, and difficulty swallowing.
