Beef recall
The USDA has recalled almost 546,000 pounds of beef due to E. coli contamination. According to the USDA the beef came from Fairbanks Farms in Ashville, New York.
In Rochester, the recalled beef may be found at BJ's Warehouses in the following products:
- 5-pound trays of "FRESH GROUND BEEF, CONTAINS 15 % FAT" patties
- 3- and 5-pound trays of "LEAN GROUND BEEF, CONTAINS 7% FAT"
- 2.5-pound trays of "MEATLOAF & MEATBALL MIX"
The USDA says these products were packaged on September 15 and 16, 2009, and was likely repackaged for sale and would likely have differing package and sell-by dates. Each package carried the number EST 492 inside the USDA inspection mark or on the nutrition label.
