The Canadian Food Inspection Agency reports 20 people have become ill and four hospitalized from E. coli infections linked to Pillsbury Pizza Pops. Illnesses affect people aged one to 87 in B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario and New Brunswick. A national recall covers specific Pizza Pops pepperoni and bacon products across package sizes and best-before dates in June 2026. The CFIA warns the products may be contaminated with E. coli O26 and urges customers to discard or return affected items. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramping and diarrhea; infected people can spread the bacteria for days to weeks, even without symptoms. General Mills says the recall is voluntary and other Pizza Pops are not affected.
