Cavendish Farms said Monday it has called in the RCMP in Prince Edward Island to investigate new cases of tampered potatoes.

The food company said that sewing needles were found during a production run on Dec. 27 and 28 at a french fry plant in New Annan.

Cavendish Farms said in a news release that it informed both the RCMP and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency when the discovery was made.

Metal detectors in the processing area worked according to procedure and found the needles, the company said. The contaminated product was quarantined and did not leave the plant site.

As a result, there will be no recall, the company said. Forty thousand kilograms of raw potatoes and finished product were destroyed as a precaution.

In this latest case the potatoes involved didexchange of health information at several key points \-- from patient to systems; from systems to physician; from physician to patient; and, ultimately, from patient to organizations in their communities. To provide knowledge management support for CHICA-GIS, three informationists at the Indiana University School of Medicine were awarded a supplement from the National Library Medicine. The informationists will enhance CHICA-GIS by: improving the accuracy and accessibility of information, managing and mapping the knowledge which undergirds the CHICA-GIS decision support tool, supporting community engagement and consumer health information outreach, and facilitating the dissemination of new CHICA-GIS research results and services.
