More E.coli outbreaks come, this time to Olive Garden
This is getting a little serious now -- yet another national food chain has seen possible E.coli outbreaks in the wake of outbreaks in several states where Taco Bell and Taco John's restaurants were located. States like New Jersey, Iowa and Minnesota has had confirmed cases already.Now, add Olive Garden to that list. Reports state that more than 250 people have reported becoming sick after eating at an Olive Garden restaurant in Indianapolis just one day after an outbreak of E.coli at Taco Bell restaurants was declared over. Oops, mistake about to happen (as in, will the outbreak get bigger?). Is all this connected? We'll have to wait and see.
I still have not seen the specific supplier(s) that are probably responsible for this outbreak named in the mass media. Restaurants that use this unnamed supplier would probably like to know if they are possibly feeding infected food to their patrons, yes? Come on folks -- a little more public detail would be nice!

Did you even read this article before making this post. It specifically says it is probably NOT E.coli. You are just trying to scare people into reading your column. How about some self responsibly? You should be more careful in what you write.

Why don't you people use spell check before posting your article? Several places, even in the headline you have Garden spelled wrong. It is a bad reflection on your professionalism in trying to post a legitimate article. It is not only this one but in so many other postings on other subjects.
Word usage and punctuation seems like it is a thing of the past. Is this what they are teaching in school these days?

uhh..did you actually READ the news articles? I am from Indiana, and the articles have SPECIFICALLY stated that it is NOT related to e coli. The illnesses have been linked to ONLY the Olive Garden on the north side of Indianapolis and no where else. You might want to double check your facts!!! :-)
