PhotosCanada: Wendy's E. coli outbreak traced to lettuce
Four people were recently infected with E. coli O157:H7 at the Fredericton Wendy's near Ontario. Public health services quickly determined lettuce used before Oct. 27th was contaminated. The fast food franchise was given a speedy re-inspection.
A Wendy's senior Vice President flew into town on Halloween to give the restaurant his rapid once-over.
Finally, the franchise owner urged customers to continue stepping through the never-closed doors.
Owner Dan Moore said everything was safe, and there were no worries about eating salads or any other menu item.
The public health service even issued a press release of its own, saying the Wendy's Fredericton was still open.
