E. coli recalls

FDA + USDA-FSIS recall events naming E. coli in the official reason.

• 23 E. coli recall events were posted by FDA + USDA-FSIS in the last 24 months, as of September 8, 2026.
• E. coli recall events per year: 10 in 2025, 6 so far in 2026.
• 202 total E. coli events match across the full databases (FDA 2012+, FSIS 2014+), via conservative keyword matching of official recall reasons.

Recalls for possible E. coli contamination (including STEC strains such as O157:H7), most often ground beef, leafy greens, and raw produce. Matching is a conservative keyword scan of each recall's official stated reason - events that don't clearly name the hazard are never counted.
