🥩 USDA Warns: Whole Foods Ground Beef May Be Contaminated with E. Coli 🚨 Health Alert Issued: The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has issued a public safety warning about ground beef sold at Whole Foods Market that may be contaminated with E. coli O157:H7—a dangerous, potentially deadly strain of bacteria. 📦 The alert affects organic and grass-fed ground beef products sold in several states under Whole Foods and other boutique labels. No recall has been issued yet, but consumers are urged to check their freezers immediately. ⚠️ What You Need to Know: Contaminated meat may cause severe food poisoning, kidney failure, and even death, especially in children and the elderly. The products in question were produced between March and May 2025 and may still be in circulation. USDA flagged the risk after multiple illnesses were reported, and Whole Foods has not yet issued an official corporate response. 💬 BETTR Breakdown: 🌱 “Organic” and “natural” don’t always mean safe. 🏷️ Big-name brands don’t protect you from broken supply chains or poor inspection systems. 🧪 How did USDA-approved products make it to shelves without detection? 🔍 JSA2026 Demands: ✅ Full transparency from grocery chains ✅ Tighter USDA oversight on boutique and premium meat suppliers ✅ Mandatory public reporting of all E. coli test failures—no more “voluntary recalls” ✅ Reform food labeling laws to eliminate deceptive “clean” or “safe” marketing Your family deserves better food safety. This isn’t about partisan politics. It’s about knowing what’s on your plate—and who’s responsible when it goes wrong. 📲 Track the truth with BETTR: https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/06/04/health/whole-foods-ground-beef-alert #WholeFoods #EcoliAlert #USDA #FoodSafety #BETTR #JSA2026 #TurnNYRed #ConsumerRights #OrganicDoesntMeanSafe #MeatRecall
