I bought the usb drive brand new and had not installed anything

So, how could it contain any boot code?
Is this what manufacturers do by default? I had not encountered
this issue you raise before.

Have a look at it:

dd if=/dev/sdb bs=446 count=1 | od -c

Does it have anything other than nul bytes?

OK, here is the output.
Is the    ;  \0 305 033     the cause of the problem for BIOS?

# dd if=/dev/sdb bs=446 count=1 | /usr/bin/od -c
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
446 bytes (446 B) copied, 4.7578e-05 s, 9.4 MB/s
