Marcacci Meats

E. coli Found in Marcacci Meats Ground Beef, Recall Issued Ground beef product made by Pasha Halal Poultry (DBA Marcacci Meats) of Vineland, N.J. have been recalled because of potential E. coli contamination. According to the recall notice, E. coli O157:H7 contamination was discovered through routine testing conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).

E. coli O157:H7 causes abdominal cramping, vomiting and a diarrheal illness, often with bloody stools. While most healthy adults can recover completely within a week, young children and the elderly are at highest risk for developing Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS),  a serious complication which can lead to serious kidney damage and even death. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), E. coli 0157:H7 is responsible for sickening 73,000 people every year, and of those, 60 will die from the disease.
