MADE RITE RECALLS CHICKEN SALAD

Made Rite Foods, a Greensboro, N.C., company is recalling 3,600 pounds of its Sedgefield Chunky Chicken Salad from five Southeastern states, including Virginia. The recall is because of possible bacterial contamination, the Agriculture Department said Tuesday.

The voluntary recall is of the salad sold in 7- and 12-ounce plastic tubs. The affected containers are stamped "sell by Aug-02-90" on the bottom and bear the establishment number P-7408 on the USDA inspection seal on the label.

The problem was discovered through routine Agriculture Department monitoring for the bacterium, which can cause serious illness in people with weakened immune systems such as infants, the elderly and the chronically ill.
