During an inspection conducted on September 13, 2024, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cited Today’s Frozen Desserts, Inc. in Miami six times for violations related to foodborne biological hazards, according to data posted on the FDA’s website.
The FDA website indicates that the citations were delivered to the company as follows:
- ‘You did not conduct operations under conditions and controls necessary to minimize the potential for growth or survival of microorganisms and contamination of food.’
- ‘You did not store or transport a food under conditions that protect against contamination and deterioration.’
- ‘Your hazard analysis did not identify a hazard that required a preventive control.’
- ‘You did not implement your sanitation preventive control, monitoring, corrective action and verification procedures.’
- ‘Your written allergen preventive control procedures were not appropriate to significantly minimize or prevent the hazard requiring a preventive control.’
- ‘Your written supply-chain program does not provide assurance that a hazard requiring a supply-chain-applied control has been significantly minimized or prevented.’
The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.
According to its website, the FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety and quality.
