Summerdale Peanut Co. has just announced a voluntary recall of fried peanuts in the wake of a recent salmonella outbreak. The recalled fried peanuts, which were distributed to Summerdale by a Georgia company, were sold in 10-ounce cellphane packaging labeled "Baldwin County Fried Peanuts." Products at the plant of the Georgia firm have tested positive for salmonella. Nearly 500 people have become ill and six have died since September 2008 as a result of contaminated peanut products, many linked to the same Georgia plant that distributed peanuts to Summerdale.
Personal injury cases stem from a wide variety of accidents and involve many different types of injuries, including salmonella poisoning. Illness from salmonella poisoning can range from mild to severe, and can be life threatening in people with weak immune systems, such as the very young and the very old. Several personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits have already been filed across the country against manufacturers of tainted peanut products.
