Ergot poisoning (aka, St Anthony’s fire) has been a recurrent issue since people started eating rye and similar grains. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a similar issue with other grains.
That said, they didn’t say what type of breads were affected, nor did they say whether the poisoning was natural, carelessness, or intentional :(
I mean, with meat and dairy and fruits and vegetables there are always situations where it might be legitimate to have them be eaten raw or only partially cooked, but that’s not a thing for bread!
How bad do you have to fuck up to get people sick from bread?!

Raw flour actually has a lot of the e coli issues
Okay, but bread is supposed to be baked!
