General Mills has recently recalled a large selection of its flours due to an outbreak of E. coli. Although no one has died, 46 people have become infected with E. coli, 13 have been hospitalized, and one person has been diagnosed with kidney failure in connection to the E. coli virus. [1]
General Mills stated:
General Mills has recently been having a lot of trouble with contaminated flour, leading to several recalls. Next up on the list is a recall of two flavors of the beloved Betty Crocker cake mix due to possible contamination with the E. coli O121 bacteria. The two flavors affected by this recall are the Betty Crocker Delights Super Moist Carrot Cake Mix and the Betty Crocker Delights Super Moist Party Rainbow Chip Cake Mix.
Both of these flavors contain Wondra flour flavor chips, which was initially recalled on July 1st.
General Mills has recalled an estimated 10 million pounds of flour over fears that they contain the E. coli bacterium. Over 38 people have been stricken with the virus in over 20 states, and General Mills has linked it to their flour.
