Reading this record

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

  • Class I means the FDA judged a reasonable probability that the product would cause serious health consequences or death. 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 record is the only one the FDA opened for its recall event, so it covers a single product code.
  • The recall ran for 7 months, from 6 June 2013 to termination on 8 January 2014. 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 1 state, and the FDA published the enforcement report 7 months after the firm began the recall.
  • The product description on this record names no food this site can classify, so it appears on no food-type page. That is a limit of the description rather than of the recall.

All 2014 recalls · All FDA food recall data

Behind every recall is a clause somebody has to produce evidence for at their next audit. 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.

Early access

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.
