The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a warning about eating romaine lettuce because of a new E. coli outbreak, saying any romaine lettuce is suspect.

“Consumers who have any type of romaine lettuce in their home should not eat it and should throw it away, even if some of it was eaten and no one has gotten sick,” the CDC wrote in a notice on its website on Nov. 20.
