Bagged Romaine Lettuce Recalled Across U.S. Following E. coli Discovery

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has announced a national recall for bagged romaine lettuce. This action follows the detection of E. coli O157:H7, a bacterial strain known to cause severe gastrointestinal illness, particularly in vulnerable populations. The contamination is reportedly linked to central processing facilities, and consumers are advised to dispose of any affected products immediately.
