What is different about Houdini Inc.
The hazard that separates Houdini Inc. from the national picture is salmonella: 78% of these records name it, against 12.4% of all FDA food recalls.
By product, Houdini Inc. is weighted toward bakery: 22% of the records here against 12.9% across the corpus.
Recalls at Houdini Inc. are more often the serious kind: 100% are Class I, where the FDA judges there is a reasonable probability of serious health consequences, against 44% of all records.
A recall at Houdini Inc. stays open a median of 82 days between the report and termination, against 215 days for the corpus as a whole. Termination follows the firm accounting for every unit of the affected lot.
These recalls travel further than most: 75.6% state nationwide distribution, against 20.7% of all records.
A single recall here covers far more records than usual: 13.7 enforcement records per FDA event, against 3.7 across the corpus. The agency opens one record per product code, so this is a sign of broad product lines rather than of repeated failures.
What these records are
Every record on this page was published by the FDA in the openFDA food enforcement database. 41 records cover 3 recall events, because the agency opens one record per product code: a single recall of a product line with many codes appears here many times.
41 of these records are Class I, 0 Class II and 0 Class III. A recall count is not a safety score. Most FDA food recalls are initiated by the firm itself, and a recall is the firm removing product from the market, which is what a food safety plan is built to produce.
What was recalled for
A single record can name more than one hazard, so these counts overlap.
Counts are by the date the FDA reported the enforcement action. That date runs behind the date a firm started a recall, so the most recent year is always partial.
The FDA has published 41 food recall enforcement records naming Houdini Inc. between 2017 and 2024. Those records cover 3 separate recall events: the agency opens one record per product code, so one recall of a product line appears as many records.
Does a high recall count mean a firm is unsafe?
Not on its own. Most FDA food recalls are initiated voluntarily by the firm, and a recall is the firm removing product from the market, which is what a working food safety plan is supposed to produce. Record counts also scale with the number of product codes a firm carries rather than with the number of things that went wrong.
A recall is the end of an evidence trail that either existed or did not. Krolda maps supplier documents to the clause they satisfy in FSSC 22000, IFS Food and 21 CFR 117, and routes the corrective action when the evidence is missing.
Recall records come from the openFDA food enforcement API, published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the public domain. Krolda adds the hazard classification and the clause mapping; neither is an FDA determination. Always check the FDA notice before acting on a recall.
