The Food Safety News website is a reliable source for daily information about food recalls, food-borne illness outbreaks, food science, technology, food policy and more.
Founded in 2009 by food safety attorney, Bill Marler, this team of reporters continues to consolidate current food safety news, including the recent Hepatitis A situation in Monroe, all together in one spot.

The Federal Government also provides advice for food recalls/alerts on their Food Safety Website including information about keeping food safe, food poisoning, and more.
