A large recall from Ford is now underway, covering certain model years of the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans. 1,280,726 vehicles are included in the recall, which involves the potential failure of a front brake hose.

The recall applies to Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans spanning model years 2013 through 2018, though not every car in that timeframe is subject to recall. A National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recall report specifies only non-hybrid vehicles are at risk. Ford Fusions account for a vast majority of the recalled vehicles at 1,167,825 units. 112,901 Lincolns make up the rest.

If you are living in the northeast, you may want to put a pin in taco Tuesday this week. On March 24, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced a recall of more than 3,000 pounds of boneless beef chuck due to an E. coli outbreak. The announcement was made after FSIS positively confirmed the presence of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) 0103 as part of a routine testing of beef samples from Elkhorn Valley Packing Company.

  Hello, and thank you.  I would just like to leave a quote, I have done a little research into salmonella and it seems to me because you make bread or cook the flour before you eat it.  Yes, I found out that I am correct.  "Cook: Cook your food to a temperature ranging between 145 and 165 degrees F to kill bacteria, including Salmonella. The CDC advises against cooking or storing food in the danger zone between 40 degrees F and 140 degrees F, which will cause bacteria to multiply.Dec 28, 2021".  I am leaving a link so anyone interested can go to the site, and maybe do a little more research on the subject of salmonella.  https://www.allrecipes.com/article/does-cooking-kill-salmonella/#:~:text=Cook%3A%20Cook%20your%20food%20to,will%20cause%20bacteria%20to%20multiply.
