E. Coli Contamination Prompts Ground Beef Recall: More than 96,000 pounds of potentially contaminated beef have been recalled by an Illinois meat producer.

Ground beef produced by Valley Meats LLC of Coal Valley, Illinois is the subject of a federally-mandated recall. The Department of Agriculture (web | news) has determined that the beef may be contaminated with E. coli bacteria.

An outbreak of illness associated with E. coli was first reported by the Ohio Health Department, and illness has also been reported in connection with Valley Meats ground beef in Pennsylvania and Illinois.
