Marcho Farms, Inc. is recalling approximately 5,620 pounds of boneless veal trimmings and ground meat mixtures for meatloaf. These products, which were distributed to retail stores and food service locations, may be contaminated with non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) O111. The affected products were produced in mid-April 2017 and were sold in several states, including Illinois, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Virginia. No illnesses have been confirmed to date, but consumers are urged to return the product to the place of purchase for a refund or throw it away.
The E. coli O111 bacteria can cause severe illness, including dehydration, bloody diarrhea, and intense abdominal cramps. While most people recover within a week, some—especially children under five and older adults—can develop hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a potentially fatal type of kidney failure.
