Romaine lettuce recall info
As you may have heard on the national news over the weekend, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration are currently investigating a U.S. foodborne outbreak of pathogenic E. coli that has been implicated with romaine lettuce, although the specific supply source has not yet been determined.
In the U.S. there have been 17 confirmed cases of E. coli infection across 13 states, with numerous hospitalizations and two deaths associated with the consumption of romaine lettuce.
As a precautionary measure and due to safety concerns, Bon Appetit has temporarily stopped serving romaine lettuce throughout the George Fox campus. Thank you for your understanding, and we apologize for any inconvenience.
