It's time to check your freezer, my friends! IMF Meats, a New York-based company, is recalling nearly 47 tons of raw beef products due to possible contamination with non-food grade mineral seal oil. This stuff isn't harmful in small quantities, but, of course, it's not approved for use in food processing. It could also make your meat taste like chemicals. The good news is that no ilnesses have been reported.
