Consumer Reports is advising people against eating any Wendy's sandwich or salad with romaine lettuce until more is known about a strain of E. coli that has sickened 37 people, hospitalizing 10.
The non-profit advocacy group cited its food safety experts in urging a cautious approach until the fast-food chain can confirm the source of the pathogen and details how it plans to address the problem.
"E. coli can be especially harmful to young children, infants, older persons and those with a compromised immune system," James Rogers, CR's director of food safety and testing, said Monday in a statement. "The goal is to minimize your risk of getting it, and until we know more about its source, it's safest to avoid consuming Wendy's sandwiches served with lettuce and any Wendy's salad containing romaine lettuce."
