Some risk is unavoidable
Breakdowns and mistakes in processing
Sometimes where we least expect it
![Page 12: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Spinach outbreak
![Page 23: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Is it safe to eat spinach again?
Unusual outbreak/recall
Sep 14 FDA warning- do not eat any… Sep 29 update, warning limited to one parent
firm and four others receiving their product
As soon as it reappeared in the distribution chain it would have been from safe sources
![Page 24: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
What is the government going to do about it?
A lot
Food safety staff in Missouri– USDA dozens to hundreds– MoAg 10– FDA 10– State Health 10– Local Health 200
![Page 25: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
What have we done?
USDA/MoAg HACCP, Risk based inspections, safe handling instructions, Salmonella enteritidis risk assessment
FDA Produce initiative – Good agricultural practices Sprouts – sample irrigation water, Juice/seafood HACCP
![Page 26: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
What have we done?
DHSS/LPHA’s Increased capacity, HACCP, Risk based inspections, 1999 food
code – no bare hand contact- ill employee policies
![Page 27: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
HACCP
A way to look at food safety, focuses on food process not facility requirements– Looks at what can go wrong and prevents it– Involves critical limits, corrective actions and record
keeping
I have seen the results first hand
![Page 28: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Do regulations cover transportation?
Yes, and we have discovered problems
There have also been problems at the producer, supermarket, restaurant and in home levels too…
![Page 29: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Food Recalls are increasing
Does that mean…
– The system is broken?
– The system is working?
![Page 30: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Why are there more recalls
We eat more food Better surveillance We look for more things The food industry has changed More risk advert companies
![Page 31: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Foodborne illness surveillance
Our capacity has increased greatly– Lab detection capabilities– Computer tracking and matching
We might have not found the peanut butter 10 years ago
![Page 32: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Number one reason for recalls
Undeclared allergens– Not the same as intolerances– Involve the immune system– Can be life threatening
Were largely ignored 30 years ago
![Page 33: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The food industry has changed
80% of the nations lettuce comes from the Salinas Valley in California
Large food processing plants can assemble ingredients from all over the country and then distribute finished product just as widely
![Page 34: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
With our litigious society
Companies want to avoid the risk of being sued– Sometimes they throw away food we would let them
keep after a transportation accident
– More likely to recall product
![Page 35: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
What we can do
Be aware– Know about recalls
Take recalls seriously– Don’t eat food involved in a recall
Practice safe food handling practices– Check temperatures– Don’t cross contaminate
![Page 36: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
We want to avoid
Fear Panic Alarmism
![Page 37: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
We want to promote
Confidence Vigilance Personal responsibility
![Page 38: Recalls and food safety Russell Lilly Department of Health and Senior services.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032800/56649d445503460f94a216af/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

The risk of not eating…
Far exceeds the risk of eating
