Fourteen types of cheese have been re-called, while investigators from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency try to track down the source of the E. coli contamination.
The affected product was sold at stores in B.C., Alberta and over the internet between the end of May and last Saturday.
People who have eaten Gort’s brand cheese in the past ten days and feel sick should see a doctor right away. Anyone who has the cheese at home should dispose of it.
