Wolverine Packing Co. is recalling approximately 167,277 pounds of fresh and frozen ground beef products distributed to restaurants nationwide. The recall was initiated after 15 people in Minnesota reported falling ill with E. coli O157:H7 infections after consuming the beef. Fresh products carry a "use by" date of 11/14/2024, while frozen products are marked with a production date of 10 22 24. Restaurants and food service establishments should not serve these products and instead return them for a refund or throw them away.
The beef may be contaminated with E. coli O157:H7, a dangerous bacterium that can cause dehydration, abdominal cramps, and bloody diarrhea. While many recover, some individuals, especially young children and older adults, may develop a serious kidney condition called hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS).
