UK: Kwik Save branch recalls food after suspected e-coli outbreak
A branch of Kwik Save in Eccleston, Lancashire, has asked customers to return all meat, cheese, fresh fruit and vegetables bought in the store over the last week due to fears of an e-coli outbreak. Ten people became ill last week and some of them had shopped at the supermarket, prompting the suggestion that there might have been an outbreak of the food poisoning bug in the store.
