Report: Chicken on Menu at 2014 Food Safety Summit was Contaminated
By Dan Flynn | September 25, 2014

The pan-seared breast of Chicken Marsala served by the Baltimore Convention Center’s exclusive caterer was the food item most commonly consumed by the 216 attendees sickened by the lunch served last April 9 at the Food Safety Summit’s annual conference. It was likely contaminated with Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens), a spore-forming gram-positive bacterium commonly found on raw meat and poultry.

That is funny in an odd way.

Heard a story yesterday that Europeans don't want US chicken 'cause ours is given a bath with bleach in the water to prevent salmonella. European chicken processors don't do that as the chicken is tested for salmonella prior to death.
