Topps has gone bankrupt. E. coli victims with cases related to the Topps recall of ground beef sold as hamburger patties have recovered on some of their claims.

Topps Hamburgers Still Being Sold in New Jersey

According to the New Jersey Department of Law and Safety, a total of 138 boxes of frozen hamburger and beef products recalled by the Topps Meat Company because of potential E.coli contamination have been found on the shelves in seven stores in Hudson County.

Greater New York Frozen Food Company has provided the names and locations of retailers who purchased products on the recall list from them after the company was served with a subpoena last week.

The recalled products were produced by Topps with a "sell by date" or "best if used by date" that falls between September 25, 2007 and September 25, 2008. This information may be found on the back panel of the package. All recalled products will have a USDA establishment number of EST 9748, which is located on the back panel of the package and/or in the USDA legend.

PritzkerOlsen has provided a complete list of recalled Topps hamburgers. Please check your freezer for any recalled hamburgers. If you have recalled hamburgers, DO NOT EAT THEM. If someone has eaten recalled hamburgers, do not throw away those remaining in the box. Label them “Do not eat” and wait for 10 days from the time any hamburgers were consumed. If no one gets sick, they can be thrown away or returned. If someone gets sick, get medical attention immediately. If someone is diagnosed with E. coli, contact PritzkerOlsen. Both the stools of the sickened person and the frozen hamburgers will need to be tested.
