There’s a mystery involved in the food poisoning of at least
90 people who bought cronut burgers during the Canadian National Exhibition and
added a maple syrup, bacon and jam topping.
Toronto public health fingered the jam for causing the food
poisonings.
And it said both the brown sugar and the maple syrup “tested
negative” for staphylococcus aureus, the bacteria that caused the food
poisoning.
Staphylococcus aureus bacteria did show up in the bacon, but
the mystery is that it was a different strain from the one found in the victims
of food poisoning.
