Don’t eat this salad!

Be aware that Canada’s public healthy agency is investigating 16 instances of E. coli in five provinces — including Ontario — that stem from a packaged salad brand.

As a result, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued a recall for 315 gram Fresh Express brand Sunflower Crisp Chopped Kits with best before dates up to and including December 7, 2019.

The kits have UPC codes beginning with the letter “Z,” indicating Salinas, California, as a source of romaine lettuce.

Symptoms of E. coli include nausea, vomiting, headache, mild fever and severe stomach cramps.
