(NEXSTAR) – More than 16,000 pounds of raw ground beef are under recall, the USDA announced Wednesday, due to possible E. coli contamination.
The recall was issued by Cargill Meat Solutions, a Pennsylvania-based company that distributes meat around the country. The recalled beef was shipped to Walmart stores nationwide, according to the USDA.
The labels of the affected products don’t obviously bear the “Cargill” name. Many are branded under the “All Natural” label. (You can see pictures of the recalled items here.)
While there are no reports of the ground beef causing sickness, the meat may have been contaminated by E. coli bacteria. It’s the same strain, E. coli O157:H7, that prompted a nationwide health alert last month.
