Sam's Club stores nationwide sold Jennie-O turkey patties associated with a Salmonella outbreak in Wisconsin, Colorado, Ohio, California and six other states.

The USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today what Jennie-O previously reported: That 55,000 pounds of recalled Jennie-O turkey patties recalled because of possible Salmonella contamination were sold nationwide, exclusively at Sam's Club stores. The 4-pound boxes of Jennie-O Turkey Store "All Natural Turkey Burgers with seasonings Lean White Meat" contain a dozen individually wrapped patties of uncooked ground turkey. The boxes have a sell-by date of December 23, 2011.
FSIS is continuing to work with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), affected state public health partners, and the company on the investigation. FSIS says it will provide information about any related recall activity. Individuals concerned about an illness should contact a physician. Those people who fall ill may want information about a Jennie-O lawsuit.
