You should also wash any bowls, utensils, and surfaces that touched raw flour.

The CDC states that the outbreak is not limited to the states with known illnesses, and the true number is likely much higher than the number reported.

This is due to many people recovering without medical care and they weren’t tested for Salmonella.
