I bought some grass fed patties, beef patties from Aldi's located in Fredericksburg, VA. And so the first patties I ate, I basically got sick within an hour after eating them and I actually was bleeding from my rear end. And so I didn't know what it
was. So I just assumed, you know, I didn't know it was the beef patties until I just opened a second pack about an hour and a half ago. And I am nauseous again and I feel like I want to throw up. So I'm almost positive there's a beef patties. They're not. They're the ones that are already formed in the beef patties. I do have two left. I tried to call all these, but you can't call their phone and because it said a recording, that's how we save money. We don't have phones in the store, but I am going to go in there tomorrow and tell the manager. But Oh yeah, I just realized it's got to be that because that's the only thing I eat and I feel really nauseous right now. And I already feel like I'm going to have diarrhea right now. My stomach is rumbling. Thank you.

Consumers who have purchased the recalled lots of ELV Control Herbal Supplement 90 capsules can return them to the place where they made their purchase to obtain an exchange for another product marketed by the company.
