July 11 (Reuters) - General Mills Inc (NYSE:GIS) GIS.N said it was
recalling two flavors of Betty Crocker cake mix in the United
States and one in Canada as part of a recall of some flour
products following an E. Coli outbreak.
The Party Rainbow Chip Cake Mix and Carrot Cake Mix were
added to the recall after a General Mills supplier used Wondra
flour, which was recalled on July 1, to manufacture flavored
chips that are used in these mixes.
In June, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
found that flour produced at a General Mills plant in Kansas
City, Missouri, was probably the source of an E.Coli outbreak
that had sickened 38 people in 20 U.S. states.
About half of the 38 sickened people reported cooking with
flour before becoming ill, General Mills previously said. About
half of this group reported using a General Mills brand.

No illnesses reported to date have been connected to the
cake mix brands, General Mills said in a statement on Monday,
adding that none of the company's other mixes were included in
this recall.
