30 Food Recalls That Poisoned Many Americans 

Sara Lee

No. of cases: 100+

No. of deaths: 21

Hot dog and deli meat producing giant Sara Lee Corp. voluntarily recalled 35 million pounds of meat in 1998 after learning its products were contaminated with listeria. The outbreak killed 21 people and more than 100 fell ill. Not surprisingly, Sara Lee suffered major losses — the recall alone cost roughly $76 million. Another $25 million went toward renovating the facility where the outbreak originated.
