Two beef products are being recalled across the country because of a potential contamination that has been linked to at least one reported illness.

There’s concerns that Country Morning Beef Burgers and no name Club Pack Beef Steakettes could contain e-coli, so if you have purchased either of these products, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency is warning you not to eat them.

Food contaminated with e-coli bacteria may not look different or smell spoiled, however, eating it could cause serious and potentially life-threatening illnesses. Symptoms include severe abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea. Some people may also have seizures or strokes, while others may need blood transfusions and kidney dialysis. Permanent kidney damage is also a potential risk. In severe cases, people may die.
