Taco Bell has stopped serving seasoned beef at dozens of restaurant locations across the United States over concerns the meat product may be contaminated with metal shavings.
By Monday, 100% of the product had been removed and discarded from the affected locations, Taco Bell said. The product in question was produced at one plant location on only one of two lines used to make the seasoned beef that Taco Bell uses in its tacos and burritos. The product was sent to distribution centers in Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and Virginia, according to Taco Bell.
"There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products," the USDA said in a press release Monday."Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider."
