The company faces legal action over the death of the dancer, with allegations of negligence and reckless conduct against the manufacturer and sellers.

Tyson Foods to Remove 'No Antibiotics Ever' Label from Select Chicken Products

Tyson Foods, one of the largest meat producers in the US, will no longer use the "No Antibiotics Ever" label on some of its chicken products due to changing consumer preferences and the need for flexibility in its supply chain. The company will continue to offer chicken raised without antibiotics, but will use a different label to reflect that the birds may have been treated with antibiotics in their early life. This decision comes as Tyson and other food companies face pressure to balance consumer demand for antibiotic-free meat with the need to maintain animal health and welfare.

USDA proposes measures to lower salmonella in breaded raw chicken.

The US Department of Agriculture is proposing changes to limit the amount of salmonella bacteria in some chicken products, particularly breaded stuffed raw chicken products. The rule would declare salmonella an adulterant and apply to products that contain raw chicken that needs to be thoroughly cooked to destroy salmonella. The proposed rule will be open for public comment for the next 60 days. The National Chicken Council expressed "grave concerns" about the new proposed regulations, while Consumer Reports called it an "important first step." Salmonella causes more foodborne illness than any other bacteria, according to the CDC.
