Company recalls beef sold in Mass., Conn.
A New York company is recalling nearly 21,500 pounds of ground beef after consumers complained that they found plastic mixed in with the beef.
According to a statement released by Fairbank Reconstruction Corp., based in Ashville, N.Y., there have been no reports of injury.
The ground sirloin and beef, as well as sirloin and beef patties, were sold in Shaw’s Supermarkets in Massachusetts, as well as Connecticut, Maryland and New York.
For more information, Fairbank Farms has a toll-free hotline: (800) 512-2291. Consumers can also visit AskKaren.gov for recall information, or call the USDA Meat and Poutry Hotline at (888) 674-6854.
