Retail raw meat, fruit and vegetables were tested for antibiotic-resistant E. coli. Samples were purchased in the UK in 2013 to 2014. About 2% of beef and pork and 65% of chicken were positive for ESBL-producing E. coli. None of the fruit and vegetable samples was positive for ESBL-producing E. coli. Carbapenem-resistant E. coli were not isolated from any of the samples tested.
