FDA warns firms about Listeria in cheesecake, Salmonella in raw dog food and seafood violations
Published:
As part of its enforcement activities, the Food and Drug Administration sends warning letters to entities within its jurisdiction. Some letters are not released to the public until weeks or months after they are sent. Business owners have 15 days to respond to FDA warning letters. Often, warning letters are not issued until a company has had months, or even years, to correct the problems.
The FDA has issued warning letters to four food and pet food operations for violations involving Listeria monocytogenes in a cheesecake facility, Salmonella in raw dog food, inadequate HACCP controls for live oysters and repeated failures to verify imported seafood meets U.S. safety standards.
Failure of these businesses to correct violations may result in seizure, injunction, suspension of registration, denial of entry, or other enforcement action.
