Russellville Tex-Mex restaurant El Patron has a lot of fans. Some of them have asked me if transporting temperatures or something similar could have been responsible for last week's salmonella outbreak that sickened almost 20 customers.
From all I have ever been taught, both in food service management and nursing, the answer is no. If chicken was infected before its arrival at El Patron, proper handling would have most assuredly killed the bacteria.
We will will add here that some individuals apparently have natural immunity, usually because of a previous infection. Below is a link to a website that explains the salmonella bacteria in more detail.
Happy Eating,
Nurse Nan
