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 330 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 330 separate recalls, which almost every published figure does, overstates it by a factor of 330. Every product code in this event is listed together on the record that covers the whole recall, which is the page a search engine is pointed to for all 330 of them.
• The recall ran for 6 weeks, from 17 June 2019 to termination on 31 July 2019. 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 FDA published the enforcement report 6 weeks after the firm began the recall.
• Recalls of eggs run a median of 6 months, so this one was shorter than usual for its category. Shell eggs have their own Salmonella Enteritidis prevention regulation at 21 CFR part 118, which requires testing and refrigeration on farms above a size threshold, and they are separately one of the nine major allergens.

Filed under eggs. A product can sit in more than one.
