Is your Beef part of the latest Beef Recall?








Winn-Dixie Stores Inc, Publix Super Markets Inc, and Kroger Co. announced the recall mainly in the southeastern US and said the problems arose at the National Beef Packaging Co of Dodge City, Kansas.
The USDA announced that National Beef was recalling more than 60,000 pounds of beef after Ohio Dept of Agriculture found the E coli bacteria during regular testing.
E.coli can be deadly and can cause bloody diarrhea, dehydration and other problems. In order to kill the E.coli the Agriculture Dept cautioned people to cook ground beef to a temperature of at least 160 Degrees.
Below is a list of the stores and a link to their web sites for more information.
