4 Earth Farms is issuing a Class I Recall for organic vegetable medley due to the potential contamination of the carrots with Shiga Toxin producing E. coli. Product should no longer be on store shelves and may be in customers’ refrigerators or freezers.
E. coli symptoms begin anywhere from a few days after consuming contaminated food or up to nine days later. Symptoms include severe stomach cramps, diarrhea, fever, nausea, and/or vomiting. The severity or presence of certain symptoms may depend on the type of pathogenic E. coli causing the infection. Some infections can cause severe bloody diarrhea and lead to life-threatening conditions, such as a type of kidney failure called hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), or the development of high blood pressure, chronic kidney disease, and neurologic problems.
