2023 FDA Food Recalls
Does something in your fridge seem “not quite right”? Or maybe you are you a food manufacturer and want to see if any recent recalls are affecting your suppliers or competition? Either way, please check out our list of 2023 FDA food recalls.
FDA Food Recalls Happen For Several Reasons
Always check your labeling before sending a product to market to make sure all allergens are listed accurately.
Products without allergens can sometimes be exposed to allergens during production due to poor allergen containment or mixing errors. This is one of the reasons a HACCP plan needs to be in place so accidents like these rarely happen.
2. Biological Contamination
Sometimes during food production, storage, distribution or any other step in-between biological pathogens can be introduced. Bacterias, viruses, molds and parasites are all biological hazards.
3. Chemical Contamination
Chemicals that are used in the production of food like machine sanitizers and oils can sometimes be introduced into the food being processed.
4. Physical Hazards
Physical hazards like pieces of metal from machinery or glass from broken packaging are examples of physical hazards.
5. Adulteration of Foods
This is usually because of fraud. Here’s an interesting article about adulterated spices that were tested in the European Union.
