The Center For Science In The Public Interest (CSPI) has published a list of turkey producing plants that are “least likely” to carry salmonella bacteria, a list based on testing by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA).
Some 39 plants around the country were tested 56 times each; exactly one plant came up completely clean, a facility operated by Perdue Foods in Washington, Indiana.
