Canned Meat Recall Expanded Over Botulism Scare


WASHINGTON ? A Georgia meat processor on Saturday expanded its recall of canned meat products that may be connected to a botulism (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('botulism');) outbreak.

Castleberry's Food Co. (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('Castleberry's Food Co.');) of Augusta recalled more than 80 types of canned chili, beef stew, corned beef hash and other meat products in addition to the 10 brands it had recalled Thursday.
Cans of chili sauce made at the Castleberry's plant were found in the homes of an Indiana couple and two children in Texas who had been hospitalized with botulism. All four are expected to survive.

Botulism is a muscle-paralyzing disease caused by a toxin made by a bacterium, Clostridium botulinum (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('Clostridium botulinum');). Such bacteria are commonly found in soil.
The Agriculture Department's Food Safety and Inspection Service (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('Food Safety and Inspection Service');) said Thursday that an equipment malfunction may have been responsible for the contamination.
