Topps
Meat Company, located in Elizabeth, N.J.,
voluntarily expanded its recall announced
on September 25 to include 21.7million pounds
of ground beef products that may be contaminated
with E. coli O157:H7.
This
represents all products produced by Topps
with a “sell by date”or “best
if used by date” that falls between
September 25, 2007 and September 25, 2008.
This information may be found on the back
panel of the package. All recalled products
will have a USDA establishment number of
EST 9748, which is located on the back panel
of the package and/or in the USDA legend.
Products
affected by this expanded recall were distributed
to retail grocery stores and food service
institutions throughout the United States.
Based on consumption patterns, Topps believes
that the vast majority of the recalled product
has been consumed.
It
is imperative that consumers look for these
products in their freezers immediately.
If you have a product marked with the above
information, please remove the sell-by date
and UPC code and send it to: Attn: Recall
Coordinator, Topps Meat Company LLC, P.O.
Box 219, 1161 E. Broad Street, Elizabeth,
NJ 07207 for a full refund. It is important
to dispose the remaining product immediately.
Symptoms
of E. coli O157:H7 exposure could include
stomach cramps and diarrhea. Bloody diarrhea
may develop. E. coli disease sometimes leads
to a complication called hemolytic uremic
syndrome (HUS). If you exhibited any of
these symptoms within 3 to 5 days of consuming
any of the products specified above, seek
medical attention immediately.
Topps
has established a Consumer Hotline to answer
