Detailed explanation-1: -Entero-hemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC): This type is abundantly found in ground beef and contaminated fruits or vegetables, which when consumed leads to severe intestinal infection.
Detailed explanation-2: -Raw meat may contain Salmonella, E. coli, Yersinia, and other bacteria. You should not wash raw poultry or meat before cooking it, even though some older recipes may call for this step. Washing raw poultry or meat can spread bacteria to other foods, utensils, and surfaces, and does not prevent illness.
Detailed explanation-3: -Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) is a bacterium that can cause severe foodborne disease. Primary sources of STEC outbreaks are raw or undercooked ground meat products, raw milk, and faecal contamination of vegetables.
Detailed explanation-4: -E. coli. Some not harmful, but some can cause serious illness. E. coli infections can be spread by many food sources such as undercooked ground beef, unpasteurized apple cider and milk, ham, turkey, roast beef, sandwich meats, raw vegetables, cheese and contaminated water.
