Approximately 424 pounds of raw veal products imported from the Netherlands by MRW Food Brokers, Inc. are being recalled because they may be contaminated with Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) O103. The recall includes various cuts of chilled veal, such as boneless veal cap, inside, and rack chops, which were distributed to restaurants and grocery stores in Florida and Massachusetts. Although no illnesses have been confirmed, the problem was discovered during routine FSIS testing of veal stew meat.
E. coli O103 is a potentially deadly bacterium that can cause dehydration, bloody diarrhea, and abdominal cramps. In severe cases, particularly among children under 5 and older adults, it can lead to hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a type of kidney failure marked by easy bruising and decreased urine output.
