Over 24,000 Pounds of Raw Beef Recalled After Products Deemed ‘Unfit for Human Consumption’

Epoch Times:

A company based in Chino, California, has recalled over 24,000 pounds of its raw beef products after being deemed unfit for human consumption, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).

The FSIS announced on Aug. 31 that American Beef Packers, Inc. recalled approximately 24,428 pounds of products produced and packaged on Aug. 21.

The company, founded in 2008, alerted the FSIS on Aug. 30 that a carcass was “erroneously released” before the results of a laboratory test had been confirmed, and then processed it with other raw beef products, according to an FSIS press release.

Inspection personnel from the FSIS then collected a sample of the carcass to carry out further analysis, it said.

The FSIS added that recalled products were shipped to California and Oregon and had the establishment number “EST. 34741” inside the USDA mark of inspection.

Agriculture officials said they are concerned some products may have already made their way to consumers’ freezers or refrigerators, or both.

    From the USDA site:

    “The firm notified FSIS on Aug. 30, 2019 that a carcass that was pending laboratory results had been erroneously released and further processed into raw intact and non-intact beef products.”

    Apparently they’re not aware of a specific hazard, only that one carcass was sent for processing before results of routine laboratory tests were available.

  2. HMMMM Illegal Alien Workers (Mexican, and other) Very probable. Muslim Possible this needs to be checked out from a deliberate Contamination Aspect not just and Industrial OOPS. Look at the meat recalls and incidents with meat especially ground meat over the last few years.
