NORTH TEXAS (CBSDFW.COM) - One person in Texas has died after eating a cucumber contaminated with salmonella, according to the Center for Disease Control.

A new report stated an additional nine people in the state have fallen ill, bringing the total to 18.

The Food and Drug Administration, Centers for Disease Control and state and local officials continue to investigate a multistate outbreak of Salmonella Poona linked to "slicer" or "American" cucumbers, supplied by Andrew and Williamson Fresh Produce and grown in Baja, Mexico.

Since September 8, 2015, 341 people infected with the outbreak strains of Salmonella Poona have been reported from 30 states, according to the CDC.

A person infected with Salmonella usually has a headache, stomach pain, diarrhea, nausea and sometimes vomiting beginning 12 to 72 hours after eating a contaminated food or beverage. Severe infections may occur, especially among infants, the elderly and in people with impaired immune systems. The illness usually lasts four to seven days, and most people recover without treatment. People concerned about their symptoms should see their health care provider.
