Baker repost from last bread that you missed but demands attention:
I am currently following up on the proposed list from the previous bread on recalled food/liquids and have found that the government site is not fully reporting just how vast this issue appears. From the last few days alone there has been a tremendous amount of e.coli and salmonella issues.
First I need to preface in the case anons do not know: Salmonella ultimately is connected to typhoid fever but the suspicious thing about these recalls is that most of the recalls for it have been connected to beef products and not chicken which is norm. The CDC keeps a pretty comprehensive list and comparing the previous years issues of salmonella is not even close as the past six-eight months has seen a huge explosion in recalls for both that and e.coli related issues:

Just a few days ago a huge report was posted on a massive outbreak across multiple states:

You may be asking yourself how the fuck salmonella got into beef. Well ask yourself how the fuck it got into cereal:

Now here is an interesting tidbit on the e.coli outbreak issues:
"The recall was initiated after it was discovered that sediment from a reservoir near where the produce was grown tested positive for E. coli O157:H7."

And another mass beef recall recently. This one does not specify exact issue and refers to it as "specified risk materials (SRM)":

And of course the recent "metal' found in Jimmy Dean products:

I believe this is notable baker as the consistency of these recalls and issues really demands attention.
