    Food Safety News articles on this Outbreak (up until October 28, 2024):

    • McDonald’s linked to deadly outbreak of E. coli infections
    • McDonald’s says Taylor Farms supplied onions linked to deadly E. coli outbreak
    • More patients identified in outbreak traced to McDonald’s; Taylor Farms recalls onions
    • Colorado and McDonald’s officials say hamburger was not a source of E. coli outbreak


    Noteworthy quotes from this episode

    I've been in these Taylor Farms facilities, their sanitization routine is amazing. So, if they had a bad batch of E. Coli laced onions that went through the facility, the chances of that E. Coli being still in that facility, either on the belts, on the machines, or in anything is close to zero. They're not clean, they are sanitized.” – Matthew Regusci


    You can't go into a McDonald's and say, ‘I want a rare burger’. It isn't going to happen. They're not going to give you a rare burger. Policies and procedures that they have in place for cooking those burgers are pretty intense. You might get a burnt one, but the odds of getting a rare one are pretty slim.” – Francine L Shaw
