Here's someone whose credibility is shot - Dr. Ron DeHaven, chief veterinarian for USDA, said Sunday that science has shown certain meat cuts are fairly safe from infection. Among those are whole cuts without bones, such as beef steaks, roast, liver, and ground beef from labeled cuts like chuck or round. and you can disbelieve this person: "The recalled meat represents essentially zero risk to consumers," said Petersen, of the USDA's food safety agency. USDA guaranteed ground beef has caused numerous cases of - millions - e coli illness. signonsandiego.com
