If you can’t get a beef taco at your local Taco Bell right now, here’s way.

The fast-food chain is experiencing a shortage of one of its most popular taco fillings after recalling “approximately 2.3 million pounds of seasoned beef from its restaurants and distribution centers," the company said in a news release.

The beef was removed from locations in “21 states across the eastern Midwest, northern Southeast and Northeast regions,” their press release read on Monday.

According to the company, it was a voluntary precaution taken after a customer reported they had found mental shaving in their meal.

“Nothing is more important than our customers’ safety, and nothing means more to us than their trust,” Julie Masino, president of North America, Taco Bell Corp., said in the press release. “As soon as we received the first consumer complaint, we immediately acted to remove the product from the affected restaurants and proactively worked with the supplier to inform the USDA of our steps to protect our guests.”

The United States Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service released its own statement about the recall on Monday as well, confirming that the meat “may be contaminated with extraneous materials, specifically metal shavings.”
