FDA finds little handwashing, dirty equipment at McDonald's supplier linked to E. coli outbreak
CBSN
Food and Drug Administration officials turned up dozens of violations at a McDonald's supplier linked to a deadly outbreak of E. coli that led to more than a hundred infections and a sweeping recall of onions used in the fast food chain's products, including its Quarter Pounder burgers.
The violations, detailed in an inspection report released to CBS News in response to a Freedom of Information Act request, were seen during an inspection of a food production facility in Colorado run by Taylor Farms.
Their violations amounted to the FDA issuing the McDonald's supplier a so-called Form 483, a list of citations over conditions they worried could be "injurious to health."
