E. coli Fear: No Name Burgers Recalled
13 Jan
Summary
- No Name frozen beef burgers are recalled due to E. coli concerns.
- Affected burgers sold nationally in 1.36 kg boxes with a May 5, 2026 best-before date.
- No illnesses reported, but investigation is ongoing.
A national recall has been issued for No Name frozen beef burgers because of a potential E. coli O157:H7 contamination risk. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is urging consumers to dispose of or return the affected product, which was sold in 1.36 kg boxes across the country. These burgers have a best before date of May 5, 2026.
Food contaminated with E. coli may not show outward signs of spoilage, but it can cause severe illness. Symptoms can range from nausea and vomiting to bloody diarrhea and, in critical cases, stroke or kidney damage. Despite these risks, there have been no reported illnesses linked to this specific recall as of January 13, 2026.
The CFIA is actively investigating this matter and has not ruled out further recalls of other products. Consumers are strongly advised not to consume the recalled burgers, even after cooking, to prevent potential health issues.
