The New York Times has reported that the Peanut Corporation of America, a Georgia-based peanut butter producer linked to a nationwide salmonella outbreak, has been repeatedly cited for violating sanitation and cleanliness standards. According to reports from 2006, 2007 and 2008, the Peanut Corporation of America-owned plant failed to properly sanitize food-contact surfaces and failed to make sure that equipment was cleanable and properly designed. The salmonella outbreak has been blamed for at least 500 illnesses and seven deaths.
