Cargill Meat Solutions is recalling approximately 132,606 pounds of various ground beef products made from the chuck portion of the carcass. The recall was initiated after 17 illnesses and one death were linked to products that may be contaminated with E. coli O26. Affected products include brands like Excel, Sterling Silver, and Certified Angus Beef produced on June 21, 2018. Consumers should check their freezers for these items, which were shipped to retail locations nationwide including stores like Aldi, Sam's Club, and Target.
The beef may contain E. coli O26, which can cause severe stomach cramps, bloody diarrhea, and vomiting. In some cases, especially in children under 5 and older adults, the infection can lead to hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a serious type of kidney failure.
