Tyson Fresh Meats, Inc., an Amarillo, Texas establishment, is recalling nearly 10,000 pounds of raw ground beef products that may be contaminated with “reflective mirror-like material,” the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service announced this week.
Approximately 93,697 pounds of raw, ground beef items were produced on Nov. 2.
The following products are subject to recall:
10-lb. chubs containing “HILL COUNTRY FARE GROUND BEEF 73% LEAN/ 27% FAT with BEST BEFORE OR FREEZE BY: NOV 25, 2022.”
5-lb. chubs containing “HILL COUNTRY FARE GROUND BEEF 73% LEAN/ 27% FAT with BEST BEFORE OR FREEZE BY: NOV 25, 2022.”
5-lb. chubs containing “H-E-B GROUND CHUCK GROUND BEEF 80% LEAN/ 20% FAT.”
The products bear establishment number “EST. 245E” on the seam of the chub. These items were shipped to retail locations in Texas.
The problem was discovered when the firm notified FSIS that they received consumer complaints reporting findings of “mirror-like” material in ground beef products purchased from grocery stores.
There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.
FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ refrigerators or freezers. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
“...contaminated with “reflective mirror-like material...”
If they can’t inject them graphene thingies, they’ll feed em to ya! :-)
If it was a glitter bomb, not advertising that this is possible is a good thing.
I’m fine with a recall over generic “mirror like substance”
Anyone using glitter bombs near food should be arrested.
I always avoid Tyson foods. They are linked to the Clintons so cannot be trusted.
That sounds like a lot but it’s less than two truckloads.
My mom once had a big can of yams explode in the cupboard in the middle of the night.
That was so not fun.
The whole “chubs of hamburger” is a no go, for me.
They are ALWAYS the ones recalled.
If any canned good explodes, that’s a no brainer “ain’t ever gone eat that!” And, as you said, the chubs are always the ones that are recalled. They are a big no-go!
I like ground round better than ground chuck. Chuck is tougher.
And ground sirloin 95% lean is too dry.
It wasn’t Muzzies. It was Mexicans they bought in.
I miss editors:
RIP Clara Peller.
It was probably loaded with botulism or something similar, so naturally my mom woke me up so I could go clean it up.

Naturally!
I get called at 3am to get dressed and drive up to take mice out of traps, too.
At least I’m useful, I reckon.
Awww, that stinks! At 3 am and in traps, I think it could wait!
Incidentally, one of cats graced me with a live mouse this morning as I was starting to get out of bed. I couldn’t capture him before he ran down to the basement with it in his mouth. So yeah, I have that to look forward to still. I have no idea how he got inside our house.
She flips out over them really bad.
I hate fall because mice start to come in and I’m “on call” 24/7 for them.
Guess what? One of the cats just found that mouse again, and brought him over to us. This time we were prepared! He’s been captured and returned to the outside. Won’t make it long, he was definitely hurt, and it will be near zero tonight.
