This recalled meat can make you very sick, so don’t eat it

[Mike Wehner]

The USDA is one of the entities in charge of ensuring that the food that ends up in the deli case is safe to eat. It does this by performing inspections of imported products but also by conducting random tests of samples on the off chance that they might return a positive result. It happens rarely, but sometimes a sample comes up positive for a dangerous pathogen, and at that point, a recall has to be issued. That's the case with boneless beef products imported by JBS USA Food Company, which is now recalling roughly 4,869 pounds of imported beef after a USDA sample test produced a positive result for E. coli.

The mean was imported in 60-pound boxes and originated in Australia. The product wasn't sold directly to consumers but was instead sent to distributors and processors that used the beef in other products. The recall notice doesn't provide a list of products that might contain the tainted beef but notes that the companies that the meat was bought by are being notified of the recall and are urged not to use it to make any products for retail sale.
