Cadbury in court yesterday about the salmonella contamination in its products

Cadbury allowed salmonella in chocolate to save cash, court told - Guardian

Extracts:

"The confectionery giant Cadbury introduced an "utterly inappropriate" new testing system for salmonella in an attempt to save money by reducing wastage, a court heard yesterday.

But the change led to a "major food poisoning outbreak" last year in which more than 30 people became ill. The company was last June forced to recall more than a million bars of chocolate in one of the biggest public health alerts of its kind."

"At the opening of a hearing at Birmingham crown court at which Cadbury will be sentenced, Barry Berlin, prosecuting for Birmingham city council, said that in 2003 Cadbury altered its testing system to allow for what it considered to be "safe" levels of salmonella in its products. But in fact, official guidelines say that there should be no salmonella in ready-to-eat products such as chocolate and confectionery at all.

Referring recorder James Guthrie QC to research literature on salmonella, Mr Berlin went on: "Cadbury knew perfectly well, we submit, that outbreaks of salmonella had been associated with very low levels in chocolate." Although the potentially fatal organism was identified by Cadbury in its products in January last year, the company failed to report it until June. "
