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 3 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 3 separate recalls, which almost every published figure does, overstates it by a factor of 3. All 3 of them are listed on this page.
- The recall ran for 6 weeks, from 15 July 2024 to termination on 23 August 2024. 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 7 states, and the FDA published the enforcement report 5 weeks after the firm began the recall.
- Recalls of milk or a dairy product run a median of 7 months, so this one was shorter than usual for its category. Dairy recalls split between pathogen contamination in products that skipped or under-ran pasteurisation and undeclared milk in products that should never have contained it, which is the same allergen viewed from two directions.
Named in the distribution pattern: Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut. Those pages count recalls by where the RECALLING FIRM sits, which is a different question from where this product went.
What this recall was for
Spoilage and mould
A spoilage recall means the food degraded before its date: mould growth, unintended fermentation, swelling or rancidity, usually traced to a seal, a formulation or a storage temperature.
A preventive controls plan covers spoilage under the clauses below. This is where the control belongs, not a finding against any firm named on this page: a recall record states a reason, and most of these recalls were initiated by the firm itself.
- 21 CFR 117.93
- Warehousing and distribution: storage and transport under conditions that protect food against contamination and against deterioration of the food and its container.
- 21 CFR 117.80(b)(3)
- Time and temperature: holding food at temperatures that do not allow microorganisms to grow, and for no longer than the process allows.
Filed under milk and dairy, nuts and seeds and spices and seasonings. A product can sit in more than one.
Every product in this recall
The FDA opened 3 enforcement records for this one recall, one per product code. This page carries all of them; the 2 below each have their own page with that product’s lot codes and distribution, and search engines are pointed here for the recall as a whole.
Other milk and dairy 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 Pariva LLC
The FDA opens one enforcement record per product code, so several of these are frequently one recall event.
All 2024 recalls · All FDA food recall data
21 CFR 117.93 is the clause behind this recall, and it is one 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 accessRecall 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.
