US company recalls ground beef products due to possible listeria contamination
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced that the ready-to-eat beef patty crumble items were produced on May 17, 2018. The products recalled were 20-pound cases that contained four 5-pound sealed pouches of "Cooked Beef Patty Crumbles."
The items were shipped to distribution centers located in California.
FSIS inspection program personnel discovered the problem on August 31, 2018, during routine inspection duties. The product was tested by the establishment and found to be positive for L. monocytogenes under their sampling program.
There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products.
Consumption of food contaminated with L. monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, a serious infection that primarily affects older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women and their newborns. Less commonly, persons outside these risk groups are affected.
