I really don't think there's much to worry about, fhfreak.  If it were to cause you severe health damage from whatever this bacteria they were talking about was, it wouldn't be legal.

Look what wikipedia says about Yogos...

Health Facts
Yogos, good as they may be, are a health hazard to every consumer. In 2006, Health Canada did a number of different tests on the Kellog's product. Results gathered from these tests gave evidence of micro-organisms living on the very shell of the Yogos.

I don't think I will ever eat them again.

I think that's just a rumor, because

1) it's on Wikipedia which anyone can edit,
2) it's not actually on the Wikipedia page anymore, so the health "fact" was probably removed,
3) whoever typed it spelled Kellogg wrong...

After doing my own research on HealthCanada's website, it appears that it's misinformation. HealthCanada has no such study on its website.

Yeah, looks like it was just crap. I wonder if it was propaganda from rival like General Mills (but I doubt they would spell words wrong.
I'm back

It could simply just something like a person just looking to cause trouble.  Certainly has happened before.  It's hard for wikipedia unless it's painfully obvious (like a whole article has been deleted or something).

Well, MT Fan, there have actually been reports of some corporations hiring people to skew their Wikipedia articles to downplay any controversies shown on their articles, though I don't think there's ever been a situation where they tried to sabotage a rival company's image; probably just some asshole out to cause trouble, as FHF said.
