What is different about The Pictsweet Company

The hazard that separates The Pictsweet Company from the national picture is listeria monocytogenes: 92.3% of these records name it, against 25.5% of all FDA food recalls.

By product, The Pictsweet Company is weighted toward spices and seasonings: 23.1% of the records here against 9.6% across the corpus.

Recalls at The Pictsweet Company are more often the serious kind: 96.2% are Class I, where the FDA judges there is a reasonable probability of serious health consequences, against 44% of all records.

A recall at The Pictsweet Company stays open a median of 454 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: 92.3% state nationwide distribution, against 20.7% of all records.

A single recall here covers far more records than usual: 6.5 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. 26 records cover 4 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.

25 of these records are Class I, 1 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.

• Listeria monocytogenes24
• Undeclared allergens1
• Foreign material1

By year

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.

Where the recalling firms are

The state is the location of the recalling firm, not where the product was sold. Distribution is recorded separately on each record.

Questions

How many FDA recalls has The Pictsweet Company had?

The FDA has published 26 food recall enforcement records naming The Pictsweet Company between 2016 and 2018. Those records cover 4 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.
