A California company is recalling 1,260 pounds of veal trimmings because they may be contaminated with E. coli O157:H7.  San Jose Veal of Santa Clara, CA issued a voluntary recall of the product Friday after a customer found bacteria in a sample of the meat.  The veal trimmings subject to this recall were produced between November 1 and November 9, 2012, before being transported to a federal facility for further distribution.  The item subject to the recall is a

60-pound, cardboard box case labeled as “SAN JOSE VALLEY VEAL AND BEEF INC.” boneless veal trimmings.Boxes may contain the following case codes: L-1 11112, L-1 11212, L-1 11512, L-1 11612, L-1 11712, L-1 11812 or L-1 11912, and will also bear the establishment number EST. 2828, located inside the USDA mark of inspection.
