Thousands of pounds of ground beef recalled due to E coli contamination

Story by Neha Bhatia
Dec 28? 2025


This time, E. coli O26 made its way inside some ground beef products sold by Mountain West Food Group, LLC, based in Heyburn, Idaho. During a routine investigation, the company discovered the contamination and immediately initiated recall for over 2,855 pounds of raw ground beef on December 27. According to the recalled product photos shared by FSIS, the products feature a packaging date of December 16. Labels on the packaging include “100% carbon neutral raised,” “Antibiotic free,” “No added hormones,” and the name of the brand, Forward Farms.

The affected products were sold in 16 oz. vacuum-sealed packages with the product name “FORWARD FARMS GRASS-FED GROUND BEEF,” Use-by date 01/13/26 and establishment number EST 2083” printed on the side of the packaging. The product was shipped to distributors across California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Pennsylvania, and Washington. For customers who have already purchased the product, FSIS is urging them to check their refrigerators and freezers for the above details. If the details match, the customers should discard the product or return it to the place of purchase. Supermarkets and retailers have already pulled the recalled items from the shelves.
