LONDON — British officials warned consumers Saturday against eating uncooked sprouts after authorities in France linked seeds distributed by an English vendor to an E. coli outbreak near the city of Bordeaux.

France halted the sale of fenugreek, mustard and arugula sprout seeds from British mail-order seed and plant company Thompson & Morgan after eight people were hospitalized after an E. coli outbreak. French investigators found that two of them were sickened after consuming sprouts from the three seed types in Begles, a suburb of Bordeaux.
