WASHINGTON — Stone Meats, a Pleasant View, Utah, establishment, is voluntarily recalling approximately 11,250 pounds of fresh ground beef products that may contain pieces of metal, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service.
The following products are subject to recall:
- 5-pound packages (chubs) of "GROUND BEEF 73% LEAN - 27% FAT." Each label bears a "sell-by" date of "09/19/07" and followed by "EST#6214 7," "EST#6214 8," "EST#6214 9," or "EST#6214 10."
The products were produced on September 5, and were distributed to retail grocery stores in Utah and Mesquite, Nev. These products should no longer be available in grocery stores. However, these products could be in consumers' refrigerators and freezers and it is important that consumers look for and return these products if they find them.
The problem was discovered after the company received consumer complaints. One injury has been reported from handling of these products.
