Planning to get a juicy hamburger for lunch today? Some of you may change your mind after reading this. Nearly two million pounds of ground beef products were recalled today because of possible E.Coli contamination.
U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food and Safety Inspection Service announced the recall of more than 1.8 million pounds of ground beef shipped to distributors for restaurant use in Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri and Ohio.
The meat, which were produced from March 31 to April 18, may be contaminated with E.Coli O157:H7, a potentially deadly bacteria that causes dehydration, bloody diarrhea and abdominal cramps after exposure.
