Food Recalls

SHARE


When you go to the grocery store and choose an item from the shelf, you expect it to be safe to eat. Unfortunately there can be recalls and issues with all types of food from all aisles, including the fresh produce and meats, which can pose serious health threats. In order to keep ourselves and our families safe, we need to stay “in the know” when it comes to these recalls. One thing you can do, is stay current with the FDA‘s food list that can provide recall information. Another way to lower the risk of buying harmful food is to purchase certified organic. It may not completely eliminate the risk but it will significantly lower it.
