Long E. coli blacklist gets slightly shorter with the removal of three popular brands

Now that the simple pleasure of a good old-fashioned PC Thick and Juicy comes with the risk of contracting an E. coli infection, news of any bacteria-free burger is something of a blessing. The gastronomic sleuths at the Canadian Food Inspection Agency have removed three products from the E. coli blacklist:

• Lick’s Beef Burger: 612 g, UPC 0 29345 70037 2

• Lick’s Homeburger Beef Burger: 9.18 kg, product code 55255

• PC Thick and Juicy Sirloin Burger: 1.13 kg, UPC 0 60383 64238 9
