An E. coli outbreak linked to recalled carrots from one of the country’s largest grocery sellers has led to several illnesses and one death.

California-based Grimway Farms has issued a recall of select bagged organic whole carrots and baby carrots. As of Nov. 17, the CDC has linked 39 cases of E. coli to the recalled carrots across 18 states, including 15 hospitalizations. You can see a map of cases here; no cases have yet been reported in Alabama. The actual number of people sickened by the carrots is likely to increase, the CDC warned.
