Canada/USA Beef Recall – E. coli O157:H7

Most Canadian Provinces are affected by the tainted beef recall from XL Foods. They recently expanded their recall to the US market.

"On October 5th, FSIS updated its Public Health Alert to indicated that approximately 1.1 million pounds of trim and approximately 1.4 million pounds of primal and sub-primal cuts of beef from XL Foods were received by US firms. Two and a half million pounds – that’s 1,250 tons – of beef that is “floating around” in the US, with no information provided to consumers as to what meat to avoid."

The US regions/States affected can be found at the very end of the list here. http://efoodalert.net/canadausa-ground-beef-recall-e-coli-o157h7/
