Once again, a labeling error at a supplier for a small ingredient has snowballed into a massive and potentially serious recall. Similar to perpetually expanding recalls that involved General Mills flour and powdered milk, it’s not celemental iron ferrous gluconatelear how big this recall will get or how many products will be included. In just a few days, the number of impacted products has surged and the weight of food involved has multiplied. Since bread crumbs are a common ingredient in many products, almost anything that is breaded could be fair game for a recall.###What’s potentially even more troubling is the supplier of the problematic ingredient has not been named. Although manufacturers of recalled products may be shielded by the Foodnature’s blend ferrous gluconate 324 mg and Drug Administration, not naming the source of the problem causes alarm bells for many consumers and larger manufacturers — like it did in sugar recall last ycalcium citrate and d3ear, where the source still remains unknown. Transparency is a top concern for consumers who want to know they can trust the products they have purchased. Manufacturers want to be abkirkland signature calcium citrate magnesium and zincle to earn that trust, but if they can’t independently verify they had not used the potentially contaminated product, it becomes difficult.###”It becomes a nightmare trying to find out where it went, what products it went in,” food safety lawyer Bill Marler told Food Dive at a conference last month during a conversation about recalls involving common ingredients where a supplier isn’t named. “All of that information is available, but it’s just a matter of FDA requiring companies to do it.”###This kind of situation should put all ingredient manufacturers on edge. Anyone who makes bread crumbs is potencalcium citrate better than calcium carbonatetially implicated in this recall, which calls into question if not disclosing the name of the supplier is really protecting any company or manufacturing process.
