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 11 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 11 separate recalls, which almost every published figure does, overstates it by a factor of 11. All 11 of them are listed on this page.
• This recall has no termination date on the record, so as published it had not been terminated under 21 CFR 7.55.
• The distribution pattern names 1 state, and the FDA published the enforcement report 7 weeks after the firm began the recall.
• Fresh produce is the category where contamination arrives before the facility does: irrigation water, soil amendments and field workers are the routes, and nothing downstream of the farm is a kill step for a product eaten raw.

Filed under fresh produce. A product can sit in more than one.
