Aldi recalls flour for potential E. coli contamination
The Aldi grocery chain has recalled five-pound bags of all-purpose Baker’s Corner flour it sold in Pennsylvania and 10 other states because of possible contamination with E. coli bacteria.
The recall applies to all lots of the five-pound flour sacks with any “best if used by” date that bear the UPC code 041498130404. According to Aldi, the flour was processed at an ADM Milling Co. production facility in Buffalo, N.Y., and was distributed to select Aldi stores in Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and West Virginia.
The store said, out of an abundance of caution, it has pulled from its shelves in the listed states all Baker’s Corner all-purpose flour products obtained from the Buffalo company.
Customers who purchased flour affected by the recall were advised to discard it or return it to their local Aldi store for a refund.
