Why no Foster Farms Recall of Salmonella Chicken???

  • 11 years ago
Foster Farms has not recalled chicken even after more than 100 people get sick with salmonella Heidelberg. They are not required to as "meat" is under the USDA's FSIS jurisdiction and salmonella is an acceptable pathogen in small amounts. It is not appropriate, however, for Foster Farms chicken to sicken people. The reason there has been no recall by Foster Farms is possibly related to both the cost of a recall and the damage a recall causes to brand loyalty.
