FDA shuts down Castelberry's
The FDA has suspended the temporary permit assigned to Castleberry’s Food Company. The plant had to stop operations in the summer of 2007 when cans of chili produced at the plant were found to contain the bacteria that leads to botulism. The FDA suspended the temporary emergency operating permit given to Castleberry’s, forcing the plant to shut down entirely, according to NBC Augusta. There has been no information released when the plant will reopen, if at all.
