Just In Time For Thanksgiving, USDA Recalls Raw Turkey Products Due To Salmonella Outbreak
It is time to be thankful. This Thursday marks the last day before the official holiday madness begins. That idea is somewhat marred by Amazon declaring it Black Friday week, completely engulfing Thanksgiving into the extended shopping frenzy. But never mind that.
We still have to pick out the perfect turkey and trimmings. And that is where the problem begins. CNN reports, “Deadly salmonella outbreak forces USDA to recall raw turkey.”
“Jennie-O Turkey Store Sales, LLC recalled 91,388 pounds of raw ground turkey products after the USDA found that a sample of the products tested positive for a salmonella reading matching the outbreak strain.
“The samples were from a Sept. 11, 2018 production, and, according to the USDA, the rest of the products shipped nationwide.
