A new report reveals salmonella is widespread in U.S. poultry production, with major brands like such as Costco regularly exceeding federal safety limits.
The USDA lacks authority to enforce salmonella standards or halt sales; inspectors can only note violations.
When the government reclassified E. coli into a more serious category, there were more recalls and fewer cases of illness.
I mean…that sounds like a good idea on the surface. I don’t know enough at the moment to take a deeper opinion on the matter though.
