Clover Food Truck Off Road Because of Salmonella Concerns

By Sara Jacobi

If you're looking to get your Clover fix this week, you're going to have to wait. 

The ownership of the Clover food truck—which stops at Hanover Street and Surface Road on Fridays and Sundays and makes other visits in the North End area—announced this week that it would suspend all operations until further notice because of a salmonella scare. 

"We learned late Friday that there is a salmonella outbreak in Massachusetts," Ayr Muir, founder and CEO of Clover Food Lab, wrote in a blog post. "Some of the confirmed cases ate at Clover over the course of the days leading up to their illness."

Muir said the state doesn’t know yet where the salmonella came from and are currently investigating, but because some of the people who ended up sick did consume food from a Clover food truck, the company is suspending operations and is "scouring every surface of every operation," Muir said. 

"We are examining our ingredients and suppliers," he said. "We’re going to be extra careful, and we’re not opening any location until we learn more."
