meat It's a new new year, but the same problems persist.

Rochester Meat Company has recalled over 180,000 pounds of beef that was distributed over the past couple of months. A teenage girl in California got sick from e. coli back in December and four other people in Wisconsin may have gotten sick from the meat as well.

The beef was distributed to restaurants and other food service outlets, and officials are still trying to contact all of the places that received the meat to tell them of the recall, which was announced on January 12. Attorneys want the names of the establishments that received the beef to be named along with the Rochester Meat Company.
