  • Food Borne Illness Outbreak Info Sheet #3 Salmonella in Foster Farms Chicken October 10, 2013
    Food borne illness outbreak info sheet #3 Salmonella in Foster Farms chicken October 10, 2013 Outbreak info: As of October 7, 2013, the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has reported 278 cases of Salmonella Heidelberg infections in 17 states, including 213 cases in California, 15 in Washington State, 4 in Colorado and 1 in Arkansas (none currently reported in Kansas or Missouri). One of the concerning aspects of this outbreak is the higher hospitalization rate (42% of ill persons, double the normal rate). This may be related to the fact that the outbreak strains of Salmonella are resistant to several commonly prescribed antibiotics. No deaths have been reported. Salmonellosis is a very common food borne disease, but officials noticed a higher than normal rate of Salmonella infections, particularly in California, in recent months (beginning in March 2013). The numbers of cases may continue to rise as cases are investigated. More information on the outbreak is available from: www.cdc.gov/salmonella/heidelberg-10-13/index.html Information on organism: Various types of Salmonella are very commonly found on raw poultry from any producer, as well as numerous other products (eggs, produce, spices, etc.) However, poultry with multi- drug resistant Salmonella is not common. Consumption of food contaminated with Salmonella can cause salmonellosis, one of the most common bacterial foodborne illnesses. Salmonella infections can be life-threatening, especially to those with weak immune systems, such as infants, the elderly and persons with HIV infection or undergoing chemotherapy. The most common symptoms of salmonellosis are diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and fever within eight to 72 hours.

  • Post Market Assessment of the Microbial Quality of Chicken
    Modern Agricultural Science and Technology, ISSN 2375-9402, USA December 2016, Volume 2, No. 2, pp. 1-12 Doi: 10.15341/mast(2375-9402)/02.02.2016/001 Academic Star Publishing Company, 2016 www.academicstar.us Post Market Assessment of the Microbial Quality of Chicken San Siew Kang, Mandy Lin, Meita Marselina, Mohammad Fazli Yusof, and Wendy J. Dixon Department of Biological Sciences, California State Polytechnic University at Pomona, California, USA Abstract: Foodborne pathogens, most significantly Salmonella species and Campylobacter species, have been commonly associated with raw poultry, and are leading causes of foodborne illness in the United States. Thus, the microbial quality of poultry is an on-going concern. Also, during the last two years, Foster Farms, a major poultry producer, had serious sanitation problems and Salmonella contamination. For these reasons, determining the microbial state of raw chicken and how Foster Farms brand chicken compared with other brands was of interest. Raw chicken parts were obtained from retail grocery stores in the Pomona, CA area. The total number of bacteria, total number of gram negative bacteria, and presence of coliforms, E.coli, Pseudomonas, Salmonella and Shigella for the raw chicken were analyzed. The methods of analysis used were selective media and the RapID ONE bacterial identification test. Both Foster Farms brand chicken and other brands were tested. The results of this study showed aerobic bacteria and gram-negative bacteria were detected in 100% of the chicken. Coliforms were found in 71% of the chicken, showing a high level of fecal contamination and possible presence of pathogens. Possible Salmonella contamination was detected in 14% of the chicken.

  • Foster Farms Statement
    RESPONSE TO THE OREGONIAN March 24, 2015 Foster Farms statement issued March 24, 2015 "For more than 75 years, the safety of our products - and the satisfaction of our consumers - has been central to everything we do at Foster Farms. Our current food safety performance record, affirmed by the USDA, is the most accurate, credible assessment of our practices. To focus on an isolated set of facts or events without providing a broader context of long-term company performance, comparative industry performance, the meaning and intent of federal regulations, and the scientific controversy associated with attribution creates an incomplete and potentially misleading representation of Foster Farms as a producer. During the period examined by The Oregonian, the USDA inspected and approved as wholesome all poultry produced at the Kelso plant. In any case of concern, the company has always addressed the situation to the full satisfaction of government agencies. Foster Farms' food safety performance record at its Kelso plant, measured by overall compliance with USDA regulations and effectiveness in controlling Salmonella, is among the best in the industry. In 2014 at the Kelso plant, our USDA compliance record was over 99 percent. Foster Farms measures Salmonella prevalence at two points in production - during the first process with whole birds and during the second process with raw chicken parts. First process testing is required by the USDA. Second process testing is not required by the USDA, and Foster Farms conducts testing weekly. Foster Farms continues to maintain its commitment to a companywide Salmonella prevalence level of less than 5 percent, even while the USDA proposes a parts standard allowing 15.4 percent.

  • Safe Food Coalition
    SAFE FOOD COALITION 1620 I Street, NW, Suite 200, Washington, DC 20006 202-797-8551 October 17, 2013 The Honorable Tom Vilsack Secretary U.S. Department of Agriculture 1400 Independence Avenue SW Washington, DC 20250 Dear Secretary Vilsack: We, the undersigned members of the Safe Food Coalition, are writing to express our concern about the ongoing Salmonella outbreak linked to Foster Farms and the Food Safety and Inspection Service’s (FSIS) response to this serious public health threat. According to CDC surveillance of this outbreak, 317 persons in 20 states have been sickened with seven strains of Salmonella Heidelberg linked to poultry from Foster Farms. Forty-two percent of ill persons have been hospitalized, an unusually high rate of hospitalization. The outbreak strains of Salmonella Heidelberg are resistant to several commonly prescribed antibiotics. Through intensified testing at Foster Farms plants, FSIS was able to identify poultry products that contained the same PFGE patterns as the outbreak strains of Salmonella. The agency found nearly 25% of its samples were positive for Salmonella, nearly three times higher than the agency’s performance standard. We appreciate that in the absence of a definitive link between illnesses and specific product, FSIS took action by issuing a public health alert to notify the public about Foster Farms’ association to the outbreak. However, considering the number of people sickened by this outbreak, the high hospitalization rate, the antibiotic resistant strains of Salmonella, FSIS’ testing results in the plants, and the fact that the outbreak is ongoing, we question why a recall did not occur. FSIS states that it was unable to definitively link an illness case to specific Foster Farms product produced at a specific time.

Four human cases were identified, one of whom proved to be a California resident. An outbreak case was defined as a person with lab-confirmed Salmonella Heidelberg and with pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) patterns SHEX-005 and SHEB-017. The three Oregon cases had illness onset dates of 6/2/04, 7/17/04, and 7/20/04. Cases were 19–57 years of age; two were female. Two of the cases were interviewed to assess food and animal exposures; no obvious source emerged. On 8/17/04, the Oregon State Public Health Laboratory (OSPHL) also identified PFGE-matching strains of Salmonella Heidelberg in 4 samples of Foster Farms brand chicken breast during regular, periodic testing of a convenience sample of retail meat samples performed for the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (NARMS), funded by the federal government as part of our Emerging Infections Program cooperative agreement. ACDP then traced the chicken consumption of the two interviewed cases. One case stated that she had eaten Foster Farms chicken purchased in a double-pack at Costco. ACDP purchased the same brand and package style of chicken from Costco; culture of this chicken sample by OSPHL yielded Salmonella Heidelberg with a two-enzyme match to the outbreak patterns SHEX-005 and SHEB-017.

  • Executive Summary
    NAME OF REGISTRANT: Sanderson Farms NAME OF PERSON RELYING ON EXEMPTION: As You Sow ADDRESS OF PERSON RELYING ON EXEMPTION: 1611 Telegraph Ave., Suite 1450, Oakland, CA 94612 Written materials are submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-6(g)(1) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Submission is not required of this filer under the terms of the Rule, but is made voluntarily in the interest of public disclosure and consideration of these important issues. Proposal No. 4 on Sanderson Farms 2017 Proxy Statement: POLICY TO PHASE OUT THE USE OF MEDICALLY IMPORTANT ANTIBIOTICS FOR GROWTH PROMOTION AND DISEASE PREVENTION Sanderson Farms, Symbol: SAFM Filed by: As You Sow Executive Summary This resolution asks Sanderson Farms to prohibit the routine use of medically important antibiotics in its poultry operations. The overuse and misuse of antibiotics in the meat industry is contributing to the rise of antibiotic-resistance, a phenomenon that reduces or eliminates the effectiveness of antibiotics in human and veterinary medicine. This serious public health issue is estimated to already cost the U.S. economy $35 billion per year.1 Antibiotics, even those important to human medicine, are frequently given to livestock and poultry in a routine manner to prevent illness in cramped and unhealthy conditions. Sanderson Farms publicly denies the scientific link between antibiotic use in its operations and antibiotic resistance; the company is lagging its peers and public opinion in failing to develop proactive standards that restrict antibiotic use in its animal management practices. Major meat producers and restaurant chains have taken action to reduce the use of medically-important antibiotics without comprising animal health.
