More flour brands added to Robin Hood national flour recall

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has added more brands of flour and flour products to the national recall it issued April 4 over fears of E. coli contamination.

The initial recall issued on March 28 applied only to Robin Hood flour sold in four provinces in Western Canada. This is the second time more brands have been added to the recall list.

The items were identified during its ongoing food safety investigation.
