The US Department of Agriculture announced a recall of over 16,000 pounds of ground beef sold at Walmart stores nationwide due to potential E. coli contamination. The recalled beef was produced by Cargill Meat Solutions with an establishment ID of "EST. 86P" and does not have the Cargill brand on the packaging. There have been no reported illnesses linked to the recalled beef but consumers are advised to throw packages away or return to stores. The strain has caused outbreaks in recent meat recalls. The FDA and CDC investigate a multistate E. coli outbreak potentially linked to organic walnuts.
