Here's one list you don't want to be on: school districts that received part of the 143 million pounds of meat recalled from a California processing plant. Bloomfield's on it. (See the full list from the NJ Department of Agriculture in the jump.)
From the agriculture department press release:
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has deemed this a “Class Two†recall, meaning the products in question have only a remote possibility of causing adverse health effects.
Along with the other districts on the list, Bloomfield received instructions on how to destroy any beef that's left. But USDA says that most of the meat on the recall list has already been consumed. Got more questions? The Bloomfield Board of Ed meets tonight.
See video of downer cows being prodded at the meat-packing plant here. The list of school districts that received bad beef is below.

Anybody going to hold their breath for a note from the schools that the kids may have ingested this? Maybe they'll put a scrolling banner on the website? Reverse 911 call? Can't wait to see how they handle this info.
