The American Camp Association® in
cooperation with the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is distributing this
food service alert to all ACA camps, members,
sections, and national staff.
The FDA is warning consumers not to eat
certain canned food products or to serve
certain dog food produced by Castleberry's
Food Company of Augusta, Georgia, due
to possible botulism contamination. Botulism
can be fatal.
Castleberry's is recalling all of the
potentially contaminated products and is
cooperating with the FDA, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention, the USDA's
Food Safety and Inspection Service, and
the states' investigations into the cause
of contamination. The list of recalled
products includes cans of hot dog chili
sauce, various types of dog food, chili
with meat, corned beef hash, and a number
of other products.
