Ground Beef Recall

14,000 pounds of ground beef because it may be contaminated with E. coli O157:H7 bacteria, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Creekstone Farms Premium Beef, of Arkansas City, Kansas, was recently lauded in its hometown paper for successfully reaching high-end markets from Wichita to New York City. The recall affects five products marked with “EST. 27” inside the USDA mark of inspection (weights are approximate):

The ground beef was shipped to Arizona, California, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Washington. The ground beef may have been repackaged and relabeled for consumer sale. The USDA will report retail products affected as information becomes available on its website.
