Beef Recall Largest in U.S. History

Where's the beef...well this may not the beef we want...BD 

February 19, 2008 — It's the largest beef recall in U.S. history: 143 million pounds of beef "voluntarily" recalled by Hallmark/Westland Meat Packing Company of Chino, Calif.

The beef, produced from February 2006 until the U.S. Department of Agriculture suspended operations at the meat plant on Feb. 2, 2008, may be contaminated because of "inhumane" practices at the plant, including the processing of cattle too ill to walk.
