PFP Enterprises is recalling approximately 15,865 pounds of various beef products, including skirt steaks and fajita meat, sold under brands like Studio Movie Grill and Patterson Food Processors. These products were distributed to retail stores and restaurants in Arizona, Oklahoma, Puerto Rico, and Texas in late 2013 and early 2014. The recall was initiated because the beef may be contaminated with several strains of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC).
The beef products may contain multiple non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing E. coli strains, which can cause severe stomach cramps, vomiting, and bloody diarrhea. While most recover within a week, vulnerable populations like children and the elderly are at risk for Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS), a type of kidney failure marked by bruising and decreased urine output.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
