Two government agencies responsible for consumer food safety in the United States have expanded the warnings issued last week about products manufactured at Castleberry Food Company.
"Do not take this issue lightly or ignore it if you don't own products with Castleberry on the label," said Consumer Help Web President Joan Bounacos. "The company also produces supermarket branded foods for huge chains like Kroger, Piggly Wiggly and Meijer."
The Food and Drug Administration reported that four people are hospitalized in serious condition after eating food traced back to the Augusta, Georgia subsidiary of privately-held Bumble Bee Foods.
Consumers should check the product lists at the links below and immediately dispose of any products they own by double-bagging the product in plastic and putting it in a non-recyclable trash container.
The FDA web information listing products, impact and disposal instructions and the USDA web information on meat products should be considered the authoritative source of information for this massive recall and healthy safety issue.
