Foods that may contain Campylobacter include: · Any raw poultry (chicken is most common, as well as turkey, duck, goose, game fowl) · Unpasteurized milk · Undercooked meats such as beef, pork, lamb and livestock · Shellfish · Fresh produce · Eggs Most cases of Campylobacter infection occur as isolated, sporadic events, and are not usually part of large outbreaks.
