Company recalls 129,000 pounds of beef

KALAMAZOO, Mich. - A meat company is recalling 129,000 pounds of beef
products in 15 states because of possible E. coli
contamination, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said.

The meat products are made by Davis Creek Meats and Seafood and were
made for Gordon Food Service stores, the USDA said Wednesday on its
Web site.

The beef products were made between March 1 and April 30 and were
shipped to distribution centers and retailers in Arkansas, Florida,
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin.

The items under recall include boxes of mechanically tenderized steaks
and ground beef of different weights. The boxes are labeled "Est.
1947A".

Symptoms of E. coli include stomach cramps that may be severe and
diarrhea that may turn bloody within one to three days. E. coli
sometimes can lead to complications including kidney failure.
