We haven't had a recall of any kind for quite awhile.  And by quite awhile I mean about a week but that's a long time when it comes to recalls.  So far this year we've had recalls on cookies, barbies, drills, flour, infant medicine, fruit, canned spaghetti, even marijuana.  And those are only the ones I'm aware of.  So here comes the next in what already is and will continue to be a long line.

According to an article on clickondetroit.com, Butterball is recalling 78,000 pounds of ground turkey over fears the products may be contaminated with salmonella.  Here are the specifics:
