The Minnesota Department of Health and USDA-FSIS have confirmed a cluster of cases of E. coli O157:H7 infection among customers consuming  burgers at two Minneapolis restaurants. Traceback from cases over the period November 2nd through 10th implicated Wolverine Packing Company as the supplier of the burger patties.
Accordingly, the Company has issued a recall for product with a “use by” date of November 14th amounting to 80 tons of product. The magnitude of the recall is in all probability due to the packing company being unable to identify specific batches of contaminated product resulting in an extensive recall to include all ground meat that may possibly have been contaminated.
