Ground Beef Recall Expands to 12 million+ pounds!
If you haven’t yet, you really should check your freezer for ground beef you may have stashed away. The massive ground beef recall initiated a few months back has grown – big time!!
The U.S. Department of Agriculture says an additional 5.1 million-plus pounds has been recalled beyond the 6.9 million pounds recalled a few months back for risk of contamination with salmonella newport, a strain of the bacteria that is a common cause of food poisoning.
The USDA is concerned that some product may be frozen and in consumers’ freezers. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
