Reading this record

Five things about this record are not in the record itself, and each one changes how it should be read.

• Class II means the FDA judged a remote probability of serious harm, or a probability of temporary or medically reversible harm. The class is assigned by an agency health hazard evaluation under 21 CFR 7.41, not by the firm.
• The firm started this recall itself. Most FDA food recalls are voluntary, and a recall is a food safety plan working rather than failing. The circumstances in which the agency asks for one instead are set out in 21 CFR 7.45.
• This is one of 4 records covering the same recall event. The FDA opens one enforcement record per product code, so a recall of a product line appears here many times. Counting these records as 4 separate recalls, which almost every published figure does, overstates it by a factor of 4. All 4 of them are listed on this page.
• The recall ran for 3.1 years, from 18 September 2017 to termination on 13 October 2020. Termination means the agency judged that all reasonable effort had been made, under 21 CFR 7.55, and it says nothing about whether product remained in circulation.
• The distribution pattern names 2 states, and the FDA published the enforcement report 3 weeks after the firm began the recall.
• Recalls of a bakery product run a median of 6 months, so this one was longer than usual for its category. Bakery is overwhelmingly an allergen category rather than a pathogen one: baking is a kill step, but a bakery runs many recipes down shared lines, so the failure that recalls a bakery product is usually a label or a changeover.

Named in the distribution pattern: California, New Jersey. Those pages count recalls by where the RECALLING FIRM sits, which is a different question from where this product went.

Other bakery recalls for the same reason

These are the closest records in the corpus: the same kind of food, recalled for a hazard this record also names. Unlike the firm’s own records below, they come from different companies, which is what makes them a pattern rather than a history.

Other records from Grand Supercenter Inc.

The FDA opens one enforcement record per product code, so several of these are frequently one recall event. 6 other records name this firm.
