Ground Beef Recall Expanded Across U.S.

Sunday, September 30th, 2007

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, it’s becoming increasingly less safe to eat industrial meat in this culture.

The Topps Meat Co. on Saturday expanded its recall of frozen hamburger patties to include 21.7 million pounds of ground beef that may be contaminated with E. coli bacteria that sickened more than a dozen people in eight states.

The recall of products distributed to retail grocery stores and food service institutions in the United States was a drastic increase from the 332,000 pounds recalled Tuesday.

Though, it’s increasingly less safe to eat industrial anything….

A division of Dole Food Co said on Monday it was recalling some bagged salads sold in the United States and Canada because a sample at a Canadian grocery store was found to contain E. coli.

Dole Fresh Vegetables said it has not received any reports that anyone has become sick from eating the products. The recall covers “Dole Hearts Delight” salads sold with a “best if used by” date of September 19.

this is how representative democracy simply doesn’t work.
