Supermarket sandwiches linked to E. coli outbreak
Retailers are removing at least 56 types of sandwiches, wraps and salad from UK supermarket shelves.

I am betting one million internet points that there will be some field with salad, bamboo shoots or similiar produce were they used sewage or manure to fertilize and then didn't keep the minimum time till harvest and the processing plant didn't wash them properly before putting them in the sandwiches.
This is the most common way of getting fecal E.coli bacteria outbreaks. Given the amount of people infected it is rather unlikely that it comes from a single employee not washing hands after shitting.
Either way this screams lack of proper hygiene inspections.
I've been in the facilities where they make these. Had to wash my hands like 5 times at separate stations before being allowed on the floor.
