Turkey Recall

[Aunt Bea]

I am totally dumbfounded that 36 million pounds of ground turkey needs to be recalled. How could you produce that much product without some type of quality control or inspection process that would allow you to narrow down the problem? Very scary!

That's the current state of our USDA (Unites States Department of Agriculture), slovenly run by idiots just like the rest of the government.

Me too. (I'm kinda scary as well). No, really, with the recent egg ordeal, lettuce, sprouts, anything could be a culprit. Unbelievable.

I had eaten half a pound of ground turkey just days before hearing this last week. Leafy vegetables are one thing, but packaged meat should indeed be more closely watched.

I've never eaten ground turkey on purpose.

I guess ground turkey needs to go on my list with tilapia.

It makes a great changeup for a burger. I've used it for meatballs, too.

Me either.

I quit using it several years ago. It tastes exactly like cardboard to me.

At least now I won't be tempted again.

I certainly wouldn't stop eating a food entirely because of a recall issue. Not anymore than I would stop using Tylenol because of past problems. Or driving a Pinto... OK, I wouldn't drive a Pinto

Thought you drove a truck, Pac. Pinto wouldn't be on the menu!

Yeah, I'm probably the cause of the Pinto's problems

All it takes is one bad turkey. I've read that they grind thousands of them up at the same time, so it could potentially be in all of it. I guess its cheaper to throw out all that meat, than have to pay for court settlements.

Same with burger, or any other ground meat.
