Campbell Soup Recalls SpaghettiOs

Varieties with meatballs may contain undercooked meat

WASHINGTON - Campbell Soup Co. is recalling 15 million pounds of SpaghettiOs with meatballs after a cooker malfunctioned at one of the company's plants in Texas and left the meat undercooked.

The Agriculture Department announced the recall late Thursday. Campbell spokesman Anthony Sanzio said the company is recalling certain lots of the product manufactured since December 2008 "out of an abundance of caution" because officials don't know exactly when the cooker at the Paris, Texas, plant malfunctioned. Officials believe it happened recently but aren't sure, he said.

The meatballs that went through the cooker did not get the requisite amount of heat, according to the company.

My father-in-law worked there for 30 years, it was a sad day when they left town. At one time they had the biggest freezers in the world.

Seriously??? They don't know when the cooker stopped working??? Its good that they are taking precaustion and recalling all made since 2008 but that is very irresponsible on their behalf.
