This isn’t a full recall, but if you’ve got food allergies, better safe than sorry—toss it out! Food alerts like this keep us safe, even if they’re a little scary. #Business #Industry #FoodSafety50Share
rmartinFollowingPopular Taco Spot Shut Down Over Parasite OutbreakEl Tapatio, a go-to Mexican restaurant in Madisonville, KY, just got shut down after 24 people got sick from a nasty parasite called Giardia. Health officials traced the outbreak back to the restaurant’s fridge, which wasn’t cold enough to keep food safe. If you’ve eaten there recently and feel off, get checked ASAP! And if you work in food service or healthcare, don’t risk it—stay home if you’re sick. This is the biggest Giardia spike the area’s ever seen! #Health #BodyHealth #FoodSafety10Share

Beverly Douglas+FollowBlueberry Recall Just Got SeriousThe FDA just bumped a blueberry recall to its highest alert—Class I—because of possible listeria contamination. That means eating these berries could actually be dangerous, especially for pregnant people, seniors, and anyone with a weak immune system. The recall started with 12,000 pounds of organic blueberries from Alma Pak in Georgia, sent to North Carolina. No illnesses reported yet, but if you’ve got blueberries from this batch, double-check before snacking! #Health #BodyHealth #FoodSafety627Share
Arthur Booker+FollowAre Your Veggies Hiding a Dirty Secret?Did you know over 90% of your favorite fruits and veggies might come with a side of pesticides? A new report says spinach, strawberries, and even potatoes top the list for the highest residues. The big drama: potatoes are back on the 'Dirty Dozen' because of a chemical banned in Europe but still used here. If you want to dodge these invisible extras, go organic when you can, or just give your produce a good scrub under running water. Who knew cleaning your snacks could be a money-smart move? #Business #Industry #FoodSafety10Share
Lisa Thompson+FollowFood Safety Shakeup: The Good & The MessyMajor plot twist in food safety! With RFK Jr. now running Health & Human Services, the FDA is moving at lightning speed—banning petroleum-based additives, making food stamps healthier, and forcing big brands to ditch artificial dyes. It’s being called “The Great Reformulation,” and even Pepsi and Kraft Heinz are on board. But here’s the catch: massive staff cuts and scrapped rules have some people worried about what’s slipping through the cracks. Is this the healthiest era ever, or are we in for chaos? #Health #BodyHealth #FoodSafety70Share
Beverly Douglas+FollowCucumber Outbreak Just Got BiggerSalmonella linked to cucumbers is still spreading—now 21 states are involved and the patient count keeps rising, even after the CDC said the outbreak was over. Turns out, most people who got sick had eaten cucumbers from all sorts of places, including cruise ships and hospitals. The kicker? For every case reported, there could be 29 more flying under the radar. The contaminated cukes were traced back to Florida farms, and even the water and soil there tested positive for Salmonella. Yikes! #Health #BodyHealth #FoodSafety2810Share
