The Agriculture Department called the criticism unfair, pointing out that the largest meat recall, of 25 million pounds of beef, took even longer to initiate in President Bill Clinton's second term. Science, not politics, dictates the speed at which smidgens of contaminated meat can be traced from their origins, department officials said, and a recall could not have been justified until investigators knew for certain that ConAgra was at fault.
