Renna's Meat Market In Fresno Recalls Ground Beef

Renna's Meat Market at First Street and Ashlan Avenue in Fresno, CA, is recalling 780 pounds of ground beef due to possible contamination with E. coli 0157:H7.

According to the Food Safety & Inspection Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture:

These ground beef products were distributed to restaurants and sold to consumers in the Fresno, Calif., area. The recalled products were packaged from Aug. 1, 2008, through Aug. 8, 2008, and consumers may have purchased these ground beef products between Aug. 5, 2008, and Aug. 9, 2008.

The following products are subject to recall:

  • Various sizes of ground beef products bearing the establishment number "EST. 27365" inside the USDA mark of inspection. These food service products were intended for restaurant use.
  • Various sizes of custom ground beef products wrapped in unmarked butcher paper with no label. The products were custom orders from the establishment's retail operation and do not bear the establishment number or USDA mark of inspection.

Routine FSIS testing led to the Fresno recall.

Is this linked to the citywide discharging of raw sewage, behind "secret" diverting of the water system? No doubt it is behind the escalation in nitrates found in our drinking water - raw sewage is seeping into the ground water. Sewage pollution is likely behind the escalation in asthma and heart disease. No help due to the cover-up.
With the increse in sewage back spills as lines are being illegally tied into the main line during the "infrastructure upgrade" I suspect the possiblility there could be a direct link.
I created a web page regarding the nightmare taking place here in Fresno, CA - see below.
