5 million Totino's, Jeno's pizzas recalled for E. coli

[nhboy]

"MINNEAPOLIS — General Mills on Thursday recalled about 5 million frozen pizzas sold nationwide under the Totino's and Jeno's labels because of possible E. coli contamination.

The problem may have come from pepperoni on pizzas produced at a General Mills plant in Ohio, the suburban Minneapolis-based company said. It said the pepperoni itself came from a separate supplier, not produced at the plant itself, but it declined to release the name of the pepperoni distributor.

The voluntary recall covers pizzas containing pepperoni that have been produced since July, when the first of 21 E. coli illnesses under investigation by state and federal authorities emerged."

I have some cardboard boxes in the garage. They'd probably taste the same. :shrug:

My husband ate one sunday night, and has felt sick ever since. We now know why. They say symptoms go away between 2-5 days, hopefully he is at the end of the cycle, otherwise, we may be making a trip to the doctors.

This was discussed on

CNN this morning and they mentioned that if you cooked them in the oven instead of the microwave, it would kill the E. Coli. Your call!
