Burger Recall Extended

A burger recall has been expanded due to possible E.coli contamination. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency recall was first announced last week and involved Compliments brand Super 6 Beef Burgers sold in packages of six in Ontario and Atlantic Canada. The recall now includes the same brand of burger sold in Ontario in Sobeys, Sobeys Urban, Foodland, Freshco and Price Chopper stores. President's Choice Beef Burgers in 4.54-kilogram packages in Loblaws banner stores and Webers Bucket of Burgers sold in 1.02 kilogram packages, also sold nationally, are also being recalled. Food contaminated with E. coli may not look or smell spoiled but may cause serious and potentially life-threatening illnesses. Signs or symptoms of infection, include stomach pain and diarrhea
