Latest Case Count Map

• On July 3, 2014, Foster Farms recalled an undetermined amount of chicken products that may be contaminated with a particular strain of Salmonella Heidelberg.
  • The recall resulted from USDA-FSIS identifying one of the outbreak strains of Salmonella Heidelberg in an intact sample of Foster Farms brand chicken with labeling information collected from the home of a person infected with the same strain in California.
  • Although the recalled chicken had production dates of March 8, 10, and 11, 2014, USDA-FSIS and CDC are concerned that the recalled chicken could still be in people’s freezers.
  • Consumers should check their freezers for the recalled chicken and should not eat it.
