Core Tip: The USDA is expanding the public health alert issued on May 16, 2017 to include additional products and production dates.
The USDA is expanding the public health alert issued on May 16, 2017 to include additional products and production dates. About 1,631 pounds of raw veal imported from the Netherlands may be contaminated with Non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing E. coli O103.

The raw boneless veal products were produced at Establishment 9EG, EKRO B.V., Netherlands. The product was derived from calves that were slaughtered on March 8, 2017 and March 9, 2017, and further processed and packaged on March 9, 2017 and March 13, 2017. FSIS learned that an additional 90 pounds of product were implicated from Establishment 9EG, EKRO B.V., Netherlands which tested positive for Non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O103. The product was derived from calves that were slaughtered on April 11, 2017 through April 13, 2017, and further processed and packaged on April 14, 2017 through April 18, 2017.

You can see the long list of recalled products along with the shipping marks at the USDA web site. They include Bone-In Veal rack Chop, Bone-in Veal Chuck, BOne-Less Veal StripLoin Eye, among others. These products were shipped to restaurants and grocery stores in Michigan, California, Florida, and Massachusetts. The problem was discovered when an FSIS sample of the imported raw intact veal products tested positive for the pathogenic bacteria. There have been no confirmed reports of illnesses due to consumption of these products.

If you purchased these products, do not eat them, even if you plan to cook them. Throw them away in a sealed container or take them back to the store where you bought them for a refund.
