While foodborne Escherichia coli (E. coli) and viral gastroenteritis (the stomach bug or stomach flu) have similar symptoms, including diarrhea, cramps, and nausea, they are not spread in the same way.

E. coli is a type of bacteria that normally lives in the intestines, where it helps the body break down and digest food.Some types (or strains) of E. coli, though, are infectious (causing infections that can spread to others). They spread through contaminated food or water, or from other infected people or animals.

Salmonella, or salmonellosis, is an infection with Salmonella bacteria that causes diarrhea, fever and stomach pains. Salmonella usually goes away on its own in a few days. You should drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration. You can reduce your risk of salmonella with safe food handling habits and by washing your hands after touching animals.

Each year brings news of a salmonella outbreak and instructions to toss out our cantaloupes and chicken and avoid affected sprouts and ground beef. You know salmonella is nothing to mess with, but do you know what it is, or how you can avoid it?From where it lives (spoiler alert: inside of you!) to whether it can kill you, here are answers to some of the most commonly asked questions about salmonella.
