Packing Plant Recalls 7 Tons of Beef Over E. Coli Concerns

A massive beef recall – involving more than seven tons of meat— is underway after a lab test detected E. coli at a packing plant in southern Kansas.

On Wednesday, Creekstone Farms Premium Beef located in Arkansas City, confirmed that it had recalled 14,148 pounds of ground beef.

Another ground beef recall that could have been prevented.  Read more about using ozone for the reduction of ground beef here.

Ozone is used in many food applications for the reduction of E.coli, and many other pathogens.
