What to know or do
For “Raw sprouts,” use the lower-exposure choice instead of trying to cancel the exposure afterward. Avoid refrigerated pâté, raw sprouts and chilled ready-to-eat foods that have been stored too long or handled poorly.
What changes the answer
- Whether every ingredient is pasteurised or cooked through
- How the food was chilled, stored, handled and reheated
- The exact species, product label, recall or contamination warning
General guidance
When to get individual help
Choose a lower-risk alternative when possible. If the exposure already happened, record the product, amount, timing and symptoms and ask for advice instead of assuming harm.
