    The outbreak of Salmonella linked to Foster Farms chicken products has some consumer advocates talking again about a petition filed in 2011 by the Center for Science in the Public Interest asking the U.S. Department of Agriculture to declare antibiotic-resistant Salmonella an adulterant. Doing so would allow the agency to recall meat based simply on tests.

    "If tests showed that the meat tested positive for antibiotic-resistant Salmonella, that would be enough to trigger a recall," said Caroline Smith DeWaal, CSPI's director of the food safety program. "Right now, they're saying they can't recall the Foster Farms products because they don't have specific evidence linking an individual who got sick to a package that contains both a lot number and date information that would allow them to track it back to a specific product coming back to the plant."
