There's a possible link to e.coli.  My understanding is that it has not actually been found in the flour, but this is a precautionary measure as some who got sick report eating a food recently made from the flour.

Just thought I'd mention it. This list is from the above link:

Wow. That's a lot. Another good reason to use King Arthur flour.
