Recalled: 36 Million Pounds of Ground Turkey

Eek!  This is scary.  Cargill, a major meat distributer, is recalling 36 million pounds of ground turkey linked to a nationwide salmonella outbreak that has killed one person in California and sickened at least 76 others.  Both fresh and frozen turkey is being recalled.  Government officials state that contaminated ground turkey is safe to eat if it is cooked to 165 degrees.  No thank you!  Check your freezers to see if you have this meat and then return it to the store you purchased it at for a full refund.  All of the packages recalled include the code “Est. P-963” on the label, according to Cargill. The packages were labeled with many different brands, including Cargill’s Honeysuckle White.
