The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued a recall on beef that might be tainted with E. coli.
The recall includes boneless chuck steak and ground beef from Rancher's Meat sold at Shopper's Outlet and Mr. G stores in Prince George, BC in June, as well as ground beef sold at Buy-Low Foods in Lillooet in August.
In a related story, Rancher's Meat is also being blamed on several illnesses in the U.S. as well. The company supplied Topps with beef. Both companies are now out of business.
First we had the Topps frozen hamburger patty recall that eventually closed the company, and now comes this.
Cargill Meat Solutions has recalled almost 845,000 pounds of frozen patties. Several cases of sickness have been reported, and the company did find E. coli in their plant. The patties are sold under the name American Chef Selection of Angus Frozen Ground Beef Patties. The meat was produced in August and has been sold in Sam's Clubs locations across the country.
You didn't think this week was going to go by without a food recall notice, did you?
Topps Meat Company is recalling over 331,000 pounds of frozen hamburger because of E. coli concerns. Six people have gotten sick from the contamination, and three of them had to be hospitalized.
The patties were distributed under several different names and several different box sizes and dates. Here's a complete list of the recalled items from the USDA.
