FILE - This Aug. 24, 2010 file photo shows chickens in Sparks, Md. The Obama administration is overhauling poultry plant inspections for the first time in more than 50 years, a move it says could result in 5,000 fewer foodborne illnesses each year. The final rules announced Thursday would reduce the number of government poultry inspectors by around a fourth. But those that remain will focus more on food safety than quality, requiring them to pull more birds off the line for closer inspections and encouraging more testing for pathogens. There would also be more inspectors checking the facilities to make sure they are clean. (AP Photo/Rob Carr, File)

These undated handout images provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows labels for Chia Powder. Those who seek to make food healthier by adding chia powder should avoid several recalled brands that are linked to salmonella illnesses, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says. The CDC on Friday issued a warning to consumers who may use chia powder, made from ground dried chia seeds and often added to smoothies and other foods. Some of the recalled brands are Organic Traditions, Green Smoothie Girl, Navitas Naturals and Williams-Sonoma. Twenty-one people in 12 states from New York to California have salmonella illnesses linked to the chia powder, the CDC said. Canada is also investigating illnesses related to the outbreak. (AP Photo/CDC) The CDC said chia powder can have a long shelf life, so people should check to see if they have the recalled products in their homes.
