The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced in August 2021 that a recall had been issued for nearly 60,000 pounds of chicken produced by the Indiana-based Serenade Foods, amid concerns that the products might be contaminated with salmonella, a bacteria that can cause diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps, and in rare cases can lead to hospitalization or even death. The Aug. 9 announcement read: The recall came as part of a federal investigation into an ongoing outbreak of salmonella-related illness, which had sickened 28 people in eight states since February. In June, the FSIS issued a public health alert about frozen, raw, breaded, and stuffed chicken products, but at that time lacked the evidence required for a product recall. Evidently, that threshold was reached by August. Members of the public in possession of any of the recalled products are advised to not consume them, and to throw them out, or return them to where they were purchased, immediately. For ease of reference, photographs of the packaging and labels on the products in question can be viewed in a document provided by the USDA.
