A previous version of this article had said the recall was due to E.coli. The article has been corrected to show the beef was recalled due to plastic in the product.

More than 35,000 pounds of raw ground beef has been recalled due to products that may contain "extraneous materials, specifically hard plastic," according to the USDA.

The raw ground beef items were produced on March 22 and shipped to distribution centers in Virginia and Indiana for distribution to retail locations.

Consumers who have these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
