It’s recalling ground beef that might be E coli contaminated. And that ground beef came from Nebraska Beef, which also grinds hamburger for such gourmet grocery stores as … Kroger.
The Washington Post has more on Nebraska Beef, and it illustrates, just as did the two-month long salmonella saintpaul scare earlier this summer, all the problems with our Big Ag food system.
Whole Foods actually bought the beef from a company called Coleman Natural Foods, which actually had the meat processed (what an euphemism, isn’t it?) by Nebraska Beef.
As the story points out, Nebraska Beef has, well, a horrible past history, and why it hasn’t been shut down is unbelievable.
I have to wonder if Whole Foods sues Coleman over deceptive trade practices.
