Summary

A public health alert has been issued for several raw frozen beef products, including hamburger patties, gyros strips, and kabobs, sold under brands like Shop Rite, Landis, Devanco Foods, Kronos, and Ziyad. These products were made using beef imported from Canada that may be contaminated with E. coli O157:H7. FSIS is concerned that these items may still be in consumers' or institutions' freezers, even if they are no longer available for purchase in stores.

Risk

E. coli O157:H7 is a potentially deadly bacterium that can cause bloody diarrhea, dehydration, and kidney failure. The very young, seniors, and individuals with weakened immune systems are at the highest risk for severe illness.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your freezer for Devanco Foods Gyros Slices (case code 159 19), Kronos Halal Gyros Strips (case code 19 159), Ziyad Beef Hamburger Patties (case code 911541.021541), or Ziyad Kufta Kabob (case code 911154.021154).
  2. Check for Shop Rite 100% Pure Ground Beef Hamburgers (3-lb or 8-lb boxes) or Landis Brand 100% All Beef Patties (2-lb boxes) with a sell-by date of 060720.
  3. Return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund, throw it away, or contact the manufacturer or supplier for further instructions.
  4. Always cook ground beef to an internal temperature of 160° F as measured by a food thermometer to kill harmful bacteria.
  5. Call the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-888-674-6854 for additional questions.
