Snippets: The goodwill backfired Thursday when a Thanksgiving spread that United had bought for thousands of workers at O'Hare International Airport turned out to have dangerous turkey that made at least five employees sick to their stomachs.
United's operation was not disrupted, she said. The food was not for flight crew but for mechanics, baggage handlers and other airport employees. Management gave them all $10 gift certificates for the airports' food vendors to make up for the loss of the meal.
Tortilla recall after Wisconsin students sickened
Snippets: Del Rey Tortilleria, Inc. is recalling several products after health officials in Wisconsin suspected a link between flour tortillas and an outbreak of illness at three schools.
The Chicago-based company told the state of Wisconsin it will voluntarily recall the products as a precaution while the Food and Drug Administration continues to investigate. But Marcy Toledo, Del Rey's general manager, said the company is still not sure its products caused the reported symptoms.
The products in question were distributed nationwide through food distributors and grocery stores. Del Rey has not specified states involved in the recall, beyond Illinois and Wisconsin. Consumers should immediately return any product that is subject to this recall to the store where they purchased it for a full refund or replacement.
