“McDonald’s Quarter Pounder beef patties were determined not to be the source of an E. coli outbreak following testing, the fast food giant and Colorado health officials said Sunday. The company said it would resume selling the burgers after Colorado Department of Agriculture test results showed no traces of E. coli in the patties amid concerns they could be linked to an outbreak that’s swept 13 states, killing one person and leaving 75 others sick. … McDonald’s decision to pull the Quarter Pounders from menus in several states associated with the outbreak as a precaution affected one-fifth of its restaurants.” (10/27/24)
