Chicken Liver Causes Salmonella Heidelberg Outbreak in New Jersey and New York
An outbreak of Salmonella Heidelberg illnesses in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Maryland has been linked to broiled chicken liver products processed by Schreiber Processing Corporation of Maspeth, New York. The cases of Salmonella poisoning are linked to the consumption of broiled chicken livers, which appear to be ready-to-eat, but are in fact partially cooked and need to be fully cooked before consumption. Illnesses are also linked to chopped liver made from this product at retail stores.
The outbreak strain of Salmonella Heidelberg was isolated by the New York State Department of Agriculture and Market from samples of broiled chicken livers from the establishment, and chopped chicken livers produced at retail from these livers. This is solid microbiological evidence (the "smoking gun") that can be used in a lawsuit against Schreiber Processing Corporation, a retailer and others.
Chicken Liver Recall
Prompted by this outbreak, Schreiber Processing Corporation recalled an undetermined amount of broiled chicken liver products. The products subject to recall include:
- 10 lb. boxes with two, 5 lb. bags of "Meal Mart Broiled Chicken Liver; Made for Further Thermal Processing"
- 10 lb. boxes of loose packed "Chicken Liver Broiled"
Each bag or box bears the establishment number "P-787" inside the USDA mark of inspection. The product was distributed to retail stores and institutional users in Florida, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. The following stores may have received some recalled chicken livers:
