Sources of food prepared at home: Now I have a few questions about where the food you (the patient) ate came from that was prepared at home in the 7 days before your illness began. This isn’t necessarily where you shopped during that week, but where the food you (the patient) ate came from, which could include older shopping purchases. This could include grocery stores, warehouse stores, farmers’ markets, home delivery, delis, swap meets, ethnic or specialty markets, butchers, live animal markets, food or meal subscription services, or groceries that were bought several weeks ago but consumed in the 7 days before you (the patient) got sick. I’m going to ask a few questions about stores you (the patient) may have shopped at, as well as any shopper card numbers you (the patient) may have. Store shopper or membership information can help provide detailed information, such as brands, varieties, purchase date, that you may not know or remember. You may also be able to access your own purchase history through an online account. We can then compare it with other people’s purchase histories to see if the same food is reported or identified. Your purchase history will only be shared on a need-to-know basis with local, state, or federal staff during the investigation. This information could help prevent additional illnesses. Additionally, I’ll also ask a few questions about dietary practices and restrictions.

  1. Do you (the patient) keep Halal? Yes No Don’t know

  2. Do you (the patient) keep Kosher? Yes No Don’t know
