General Mills issues two recalls

General Mills issued a recall for 10 million pounds of flour and within a few hours issued another recall for Nature Valley protein and nut bars
.
The flour recall is because of E. Coli 0121 suspected of poisoning 38 people in 20 states.

The Nature Valley recall is because of Listeria monocytogenes. That recall notice from General Mills headquarters in Minneapolis was followed by a similar recall notice from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

So far the CFIA has said nothing about General Mills flour or products containing its flour.
The flour, sold under a number of different brand names, was made between Dec. 15 and May 3.
