Grimmway Farms, based in Bakersfiled, California, has recalled the carrots, which included whole and baby organic carrots sold in bags under multiple brand names including 365, Cal-Organic, Nature's Promise, O-Organics, Trader Joe's and Wegmans, among others.

An E. coli outbreak linked to recalled carrots has led to dozens of illnesses in 18 states and one death, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. At least 39 cases of E. coli have been linked to the carrots since early September,

The CDC says a new E. coli outbreak has been tied to organic carrots sold at a number of retailers like Trader Joe's and Costco, weeks after an E. coli outbreak took Quarter Pounders off the menu at McDonald's across a dozen states.
