Recall of Celery Products Expands
A California farm is recalling a vegetable mix believed to be the source of an E. Coli outbreak that has sickened people in seven states.
FOX’s Tonya J. Powers has the story:
Nineteen people – ranging in age from five to 84 – have gotten sick in the outbreak. Five of them have been hospitalized – two with kidney failure.
The recall is for a mix of diced celery and onion made by Taylor Farms Pacific that’s used in Costco chicken salad and other foods.
The foods range from thai-style salads to packaged dinners and wraps… And they’re sold at stores including Costco, Target, Starbucks, Walmart and Safeway.
Illness reports have come from Montana, Utah, Colorado, California, Missouri, Virginia, and Washington state.
Health officials urge people who bought chicken salad at any U.S. Costco store on or before November 20th to throw it away.
