I'm not sure how many of you feed your ratties baby carrots, I do on occasion as a special treat and to sometimes supplement their diet but there is now a warning out on baby carrots as some may be contaminated :evil: The product is Los Angeles Salad Company Baby Carrots and was sold at Costco in Ontario, B.C. Newfoundland, Alberta and Quebec, Here is a news link: http://baytoday.ca/content/news/details.asp?c=21290

Those are some serious symptoms:

Food contaminated with Shigella may not look or smell spoiled. Shigella infection can cause diarrhea (which may be bloody), fever, nausea, and vomiting. Illness usually lasts from 4 to 14 days. In some persons, especially very young, and very old people and people with compromised immune systems, the diarrhea can be more severe. Infection can occur after eating and drinking food and water that is contaminated with Shigella and can be passed from person to person.

Thanks for the heads up Chicky!
