More than 60 tons of ground beef recalled

Approximately 120,872 pounds of ground beef products have been recalled due to possible E. coli contamination.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) website, Lakeside Refrigerated Services, of Swedesboro, N.J., announced Monday that it is recalling the beef after the problem was discovered during routine testing of imported products produced from Feb. 1 through April 8.

The affected products have establishment number “EST. 46841” inside the USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to retail locations nationwide.


Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them and should throw them away or return them to the place of purchase.


Another hit to the food supply…


Another part of this problem we are going to have is that along with the dwindling resources in this country, a literal ton of people are continually being admitted to the country (illegally) which will stretch those limited resources even more thin.

I always assumed there was a little E coli in raw meat. That's why you cook it. Is there something special about this particular E coli???

E Coli is everywhere, even on your toothbrushes:

While the severity of E Coli does depend on the strain, we should not be recalling meat over it.

My morning paper informs me that this particular strain of e coli is more than the usual. STEC 013 causes a 2-8 day illness.

Be careful if eating a pink in the middle burger.

It's inside of us as well, along with billions of other individual germs. It would be far worse if we did not have bacteria (some of which is dangerous if it takes over) in our guts.



E coli is also in the guts of the animals we eat. When the carcasses are butchered, the stomach lining is sometimes punctured and all that digested nastiness comes spilling out, covering the meat in bacteria. This is why we should not eat this meat raw.



An animal that is cleanly butchered that is healthy is another story. I love eating raw foods, including beef, lamb, fish, etc but most beef here is not acceptable for that. I would think it would cost a fortune to get cleanly butchered meat that we can be sure is free of e coli.
