Following Costco’s E. Coli Scare, Starbucks Is Now Recalling Their Holiday Turkey Paninis

Turkey-Panini-Starbucks

Looks like no quick service brand is safe from E. coli these days. Coffee giant Starbucks has pulled their Turkey Panini’s from 1,347 locations in the U.S., Bloomberg reports. The sandwiches have been tied to the E. coli outbreak from Costco, recently.

The paninis recalled had been a part of the holiday lineup, a Starbucks spokesperson told Bloomberg. West Coast states California, Nevada and Oregon pulled their panini from store shelves. The total was more than 1,000 stores, reports the LA Times.

Celery from the cranberry cornbread stuffing in the sandwich has been identified as the cause of the E. coli by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The celery had also been found in Costco’s chicken salad. Since its discovery, Taylor Farms Pacific Inc. has recalled multiple celery products.

Along with Starbucks and Costco, Chipotle also had an outbreak of E. coli that cause dozens of illnesses.

Harmful forms of E. Coli can cause diarrhea and led to kidney failure in those with weaker immune systems.
