The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service or FSIS has issued a public health alert due to concerns that FBS Hudson's specific ground beef product may be contaminated with E. coli O103.
The product subject to the health alert is 1-lb. plastic vacuum-packed packages containing "FRANK'S BUTCHER SHOP GROUND BEEF" with "PACKED ON" dates of 10-07-2022 and 10-09-2022 on the label.
The raw ground beef items were produced on October 4, 2022. The establishment's retail store location in Hudson, Wyoming sold the affected product directly to consumers.
The agency noted that a recall was not requested as the products are no longer available for purchase.
The problem was discovered when FBS Hudson alerted FSIS that its routine microbial testing results found Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) O103 in a sample of the ground beef.
People can become ill from STECs 2-8 days after consuming the organism. Most people infected with STEC O103 develop diarrhea, often bloody, and vomiting. Some illnesses last longer and can be more severe.
However, there have been no confirmed reports of illness due to consumption of these products to date.
FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers' refrigerators or freezers are urged them to throw away the product or return to the place of purchase.
Recently, Lakewood, New Jersey-based Cuisine Innovations Unlimited, LLC recalled its Earth Grown Vegan brand frozen Traditional Falafel and Garlic & Herb Falafel following a multistate E. coli outbreak.
There were 20 reported cases of Shiga-toxin-producing E. coli O121:H19 infections in various states, with onset dates reported between July 24 and September 19 with 5 hospitalization and no deaths.
