"Can black pepper really carry salmonella? Yes. Salmonella has in the
past been found in black pepper, white pepper, red pepper, and
paprika. It's also been found in other dry spices, although salmonella
concentrations in pepper and other spices appear to be low, according
to a 2006 review led by FDA and CDC researchers."
