Is Safeway Beef Sold in Jewel Stores Exempt From Cargill Recall

Editor's note: Officials with Albertsons contacted Food Safety News on Aug. 27 to report that the recall notice issued by Safeway incorrectly included two products. This recall does not include Niman Ranch 90% Ground Beef 10% Fat Market or Niman Ranch 90% Lean Ground Beef 10% Fat. Please contact Albertsons for additional information by calling 925-989-4767.

Albertsons, Safeway, Pak 'N Save, and Vons stores in seven states  announced on Friday morning they were taking their own action after yesterday's recall of more than 12 and one-half tons of ground beef by Cargill Meat Solutions in Fort Morgan, CO.

The retailers jointly announced recalls, impacting products (listed below) sold at stores in Northern California, Colorado, Nebraska, Northern Nevada, New Mexico, South Dakota, and Wyoming.

Their product recall list includes products that were made with Cargill beef or prepared near the recalled Cargill beef.

The recalled products were sold between August 20 and August 23 (8-20-18 and 8-23-18). The products have Sell Thru dates of August 21 through August 25 (8-21-18 through 8-25-18). The Sell Thru date is printed on the scale label.

Cargill discovered the contaminated beef on August 22 after routine testing and a review of their records determined that specific beef products may be associated with a presumptive positive for E. coli O157: H7. Cargill then notified the USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).

To date, there have been no confirmed reports of illness associated with the consumption of Cargill products or products sold at Albertsons, Safeway, Pak 'N Save or Vons stores. The stores issued a recall out of an abundance of caution.

Anyone concerned about an illness should contact a healthcare provider. E. coli O157: H7 is a potentially deadly bacterium that can cause dehydration, bloody diarrhea and abdominal cramps 2–8 days (3–4 days, on average) after exposure the organism. While most people recover within a week, some develop a type of kidney failure called hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). This condition can occur among persons of any age but is most common in children under 5-years old and older adults. It is marked by natural bruising, pallor, and decreased urine output. Persons who experience these symptoms should seek emergency medical care immediately.

Consumers are asked to check their refrigerators and freezers for recalled products. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged to discard or return them to the place of purchase for a refund.

FSIS advises all consumers to safely prepare their raw meat products, including fresh and frozen, and only consume ground beef that has been cooked to a temperature of 160°F. The only way to confirm that ground beef is cooked to a temperature high enough to kill harmful bacteria is to use a food thermometer that measures the internal temperature.

Consumers with questions about Cargill's recall can call 1-844-419-1574.

Consumers with questions about the Albertsons, Safeway, Pak 'N Save and Von's recall can call 1-877-723-3929 anytime.
