An Arizona company is expanding a recall for ground beef to include more than 12 million pounds of raw beef products. The items were packaged from July 26 to September 7, and were distributed to retail locations nationwide.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) said the products from JBS Tolleson, Inc., may be contaminated with a strain of bacteria called Salmonella Newport. An investigation has found 246 cases of people getting sick in 26 states. The initial recall was issued in October.
Affected products have the establishment number "EST. 267" stamped inside the USDA mark of inspection. They include brands such as Kroger, Cedar Farms and Showcase.
The USDA said some of these products may be frozen, so customers should check their freezers and throw away any of the beef impacted by the recall.

Our old pal sal.
I would say not a scam.
More likely some pissed off illegal alien somewhere in the production chain.
Hmmm....mentholated. Wasn't this Obama's brand?
Bet he puffed the 100's.
Cook it well, eat it in complete safety. Chicken almost always has salmonella on it, or did in times past. That is why you must treat food preparation surfaces as if they are poison after you prepare chicken to be cooked.
If I am wrong on this, someone let me know, but I have never worried about this, but don’t purchase meat in tubes or from Walmart.
More likely some pissed off illegal alien....
Terrorists ??
So 12 million lbs of meat to donate to the illegal encampment?
All them cows gave their lives fer nuthin.
About 25,000 cows, assuming that all the meat was used for ground beef.
Well, first the salad (Romain), now
the beef, cheese is next.
No kidding. Tens of thousands of cows. Shame.
food borne illnesses are very common and most of us have a little touch of this or that....its called LIFE....life is not completely safe....
