News Release
C&S Wholesale Grocers Recalls Meat and Poultry Products due to Possible Temperature Abuse During Transport at Two Stores in New York
Class I Recall 070-2019
Health Risk: High Jun 20, 2019

WASHINGTON, June 20, 2019 – C&S Wholesale Grocers, located in Westfield, Mass. is recalling an undetermined amount of ready-to-eat and not-ready-to-eat meat and poultry products due to temperature abuse during transport, which may have resulted in the growth of spoilage organisms or pathogens, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. Temperature abuse may result in the growth of the proliferation of Staphylococcus aureus, Shiga-toxin producing E. coli, Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella.

The ready-to-eat and not-ready-to-eat meat and poultry products were sold on June 17, 2019, at two Target retail stores in New York. The Target stores are located at 98 Veterans Memorial Highway in Commack, New York and 160 North Research Place in Central Islip, New York.

The complete list of products and UPC code numbers for products sold at the Commack, New York location can be found here.

The complete list of products, product labels and UPC code numbers for products sold at the Central Islip, New York location can be found here.

The labels for these products will be posted when available.

The problem was discovered when the firm notified FSIS that the product was held at an incorrect temperature and then inadvertently shipped into commerce.  All remaining inventory of the recalled items have been removed from the store and destroyed.

Staphylococcus aureus is a common bacteria found on the skin and in the noses of healthy people and animals. Staphylococcus aureus can produce seven different toxins that are frequently responsible for food poisoning.

Most people infected with E.coli develop diarrhea (often *bleep*) and vomiting. Some illnesses last longer and can be more severe. Infection is usually diagnosed by testing of a stool sample. Vigorous rehydration and other supportive care is the usual treatment; antibiotic treatment is generally not recommended. Most people recover within a week, but, rarely, some develop a more severe infection. Some kinds of E. coli bacteria cause disease when they make a toxin called Shiga toxin. The bacteria that make these toxins are called “Shiga toxin-producing E. coli,” or STEC for short. The most common type of STEC in the United States is E.coli O157:H7. Persons who experience these symptoms should seek emergency medical care immediately.

Consumption of food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, a serious infection that primarily affects older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women and their newborns. Less commonly, persons outside these risk groups are affected. Listeriosis can cause fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms. An invasive infection spreads beyond the gastrointestinal tract. In pregnant women, the infection can cause miscarriages, stillbirths, premature delivery or life-threatening infection of the newborn. In addition, serious and sometimes fatal infections in older adults and persons with weakened immune systems. Listeriosis is treated with antibiotics. Persons in the higher-risk categories who experience flu-like symptoms within two months after eating contaminated food should seek medical care and tell the health care provider about eating the contaminated food.

Consumption of food contaminated with Salmonella can cause salmonellosis, one of the most common bacterial foodborne illnesses. The most common symptoms of salmonellosis are diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and fever within 12 to 72 hours after eating the contaminated product. The illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days. Most people recover without treatment. In some persons, however, the diarrhea may be so severe that the patient needs to be hospitalized. Older adults, infants, and persons with weakened immune systems are more likely to develop a severe illness. Individuals concerned about an illness should contact their health care provider.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider. 

FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ refrigerators or freezers. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase. Consumers may also contact Target Guest Relations at 1-800-440-0680 for assistance and a full refund in the form of a Target gift card. Products purchased at any other Target store are not affected by this recall.

FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers.

Members of the media with questions about the recall can contact Lauren La Bruno, VP Communications C&S Wholesale, at (201) 906-5862 or llabruno@cswg.com. Consumers with questions about the recall can contact C&S Wholesale Grocers customer service at foodsafety@cswg.com.

Consumers with food safety questions can "Ask Karen," the FSIS virtual representative available 24 hours a day at AskKaren.gov or via smartphone at m.askkaren.gov. The toll-free USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline 1-888-MPHotline (1-888-674-6854) is available in English and Spanish and can be reached from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. (Eastern Time) Monday through Friday. Recorded food safety messages are available 24 hours a day. The online Electronic Consumer Complaint Monitoring System can be accessed 24 hours a day at: http://www.fsis.usda.gov/reportproblem.

The British Medical Journal (BMJ) tells the cautionary tale of a UK woman who clearly forgot that a key rule of wearing contacts involves taking them out of your eyes when you're done with them. The patient was found with a build-up of 27 forgotten lenses in her eye that resembled a "blueish mass." How endearing.

Source: GIPHY
The 67-year-old patient was in for a preliminary check-up ahead of a scheduled cataract surgery when the contacts were discovered. Specialist trainee ophthalmologist Rupal Morjaria said that the operating team initially found 17 individual contact lenses that had formed one giant lump in the woman's eye. Upon further inspection, another 10 lenses were found as well.
"It was such a large mass. All the 17 contact lenses were stuck together," Morjaria said in an interview with Optometry Today. "We were really surprised that the patient didn't notice it because it would cause quite a lot of irritation while it was sitting there."
That's perhaps the wildest part of this story -- the patient didn't even notice the build-up of lenses. She had felt some dryness and irritation over the years, but she just chalked it up to old age. Thankfully, she managed to avoid serious infection from the dozens of lost contacts, and she reported feeling a lot more comfortable in the weeks following their removal.
The patient had been wearing monthly disposable contact lenses for 35 years. However, she ordered her refills online and did not go to the optometrist for a check-up in the years since switching to contacts. This issue, which would have prevented such an alarming build-up of lost contacts, is a growing concern among eye doctors in the digital age and it is what prompted Morjaria and her team to publish this case in BMJ.
"In this day and age, when it is so easy to purchase contact lenses online, people become lax about having regular check ups," Morjaria said. "Contact lenses are used all the time, but if they are not appropriately monitored we see people with serious eye infections that can cause them to lose their sight."
So, if you take anything away from this story, it's that you should regularly get your eyes checked out by a professional. And, by all all means, remember to double check your eyes every morning for lost contacts -- that is, if you can still muscle up the courage to wear those newfangled eyeball contraptions after reading this story.
