Price Chopper Supermarkets is taking part in a national recall of beef supplied to them from the ConAgra Beef Company.
Price Chopper officials in Schenectady NY said yesterday that the recall was entirely voluntary and no contaminated beef had been found at any Price Chopper locations.
Price Chopper officials said they're recalling fresh ground beef with specific "sell-by" dates between June 5 and July 1. This ground beef may be contaminated with Ecoli bacteria.
Any customer who purchased ground beef with these "sell-by" dates should return it to Price Chopper for a refund.
In the Berkshires, Price Chopper operates stores in Pittsfield, North Adams, Lenox, Great Barrington and Lee.

Winter Storm Warning Issued for Berkshires
Another snowstorm is expected to move through the region overnight on Friday, bringing 5 to 8 inches of snow. This is updated from Thursday's winter weather advisory.
The National Weather Service in Albany, N.Y., has posted a winter storm warning for all of Berkshire County and parts of eastern New York State beginning Friday at 4 p.m. through Saturday at 1 p.m.
The region could see heavy to moderate snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour overnight, tapering off Saturday morning to flurries.
Drivers should exercise caution on Friday night and Saturday morning, as travel conditions may be hazardous.
Saturday night should be clear and calm, but warming temperatures means freezing rain Sunday night and rain through Monday with highs in the 40s. The forecast isn't much better through the week as temperatures dip back into the teens with New Year's Eve looking cloudy and frigid.
Many homeowners are showing their holiday spirit by decorating their houses. We asked for submissions so those in the community can check out these fanciful lights and decor when they're out.
