An Illinois company is the latest to recall ground beef on fears it could be contaminated with E. coli bacteria.
E.S. Miller Packaging Co. is forced to call back at least 219 pounds of beef. It involves the following specific products:
* 10-pound Cryovaced bags of bulk “EDWARD S. MILLER PACKING CO., GROUND BEEF.” Each bag bears the establishment number “EST. 34342″ inside the USDA mark of inspection and case codes of “070709,” “070809,” “070909″ or “071009.”
* 12- and 15-pound boxes “EDWARD S. MILLER PACKING CO., GROUND BEEF PATTIES.” Each box bears the establishment number “EST. 34342″ inside the USDA mark of inspection and case codes of “070709,” “070809,” “070909″ or “071009.”
The announcement was made by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service. The contamination was discovered during a routine FSIS inspection.
The beef was manufactured between July 7 and July 10 and distributed to restaurants and consumers in the Montgomery and Paw Paw, Ill., area.
