Massive Ground Beef Recall Over E. Coli Concerns in the US

Over 167,000 pounds of ground beef have been recalled in the US due to an E coli outbreak linked to a common meat supplier, affecting at least 19 people in Minnesota. The contaminated meat was traced to restaurants like Red Cow and Hen House Eatery. E coli O157:H7, a harmful strain, can cause severe illness, particularly in vulnerable populations. The USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service is investigating, and Wolverine Packing Co is conducting an internal audit. Cooking meat to 71°C (160°F) can kill E coli.
