Supply Chain Management: A Year in Review

To understand supply chain disruptions in a more systematic way, broader scenario planning and more rigorous work processes are needed
John W. Spink Ph.D.

Many of the techniques used in creating a HACCP plan are shared with other types of plans, such as food quality and food defense plans. This article discusses regulatory changes in the dairy industry through the years, including the Grade "A" Pasteurized Milk Ordinance (PMO), the National Conference on Interstate Milk Shippers Dairy HACCP Pilot Program, and the incorporation of the Food Safety Modernization Act Preventive Controls Rule within the PMO.

Spotlight: A Critical Look at Reducing the Risk of Salmonella from Poultry—Part 2

Harshavardhan Thippareddi Ph.D. Manpreet Singh Ph.D. Todd Applegate Ph.D. Sudhir Yadav Ph.D.
October 4, 2022

To understand and eventually reduce the risk of salmonellosis from poultry meat, it is necessary to understand the poultry production system, the introduction of the microorganism into the poultry ecosystem (as well as its gastrointestinal tract), the sources of Salmonella during production, and, subsequently, strategies to control or reduce the risk from this microorganism at both the pre-and post-harvest stages. Part 2 of this article series examines pre-harvest controls during grow-out.

Eric Wilhelmsen, Ph.D., C.F.S.
October 11, 2022
The meat and poultry industries are an interesting mix of conservative practices and innovation. This article examines five topics and their implications to protein food, including meat safety as a model for the produce industry; increased interest in Salmonella and Listeria; USDA proposed rulemaking for meat and poultry; the move toward aggregated sampling; and developing safety needs for tissue-cultivated products.

The Incident Command System and Foodborne Illness Outbreak Investigations

The Coordinated Outbreak Response and Evaluation (CORE) Network is the coordination focal point for all FDA resources during outbreak investigations
Stelios Viazis Ph.D. Sharon Seelman M.S., M.B.A. Kari Irvin M.S. Julia Mangia M.P.H.
October 11, 2022

During foodborne illness outbreak investigations, public health and regulatory authorities collect three types of data to determine a common food consumed by ill people: epidemiologic, traceback, and laboratory. State and local partners work with FDA to conduct traceback investigations and examine the food supply chain to determine the origin of the foods identified by the epidemiologic investigations. This article looks at the benefits of using incident command system (ICS) principles during emergency response coordination activities for foodborne illness outbreaks, with input from members of the FDA's CORE Network.

Navigating U.S. Federal and State Regulation of PFAS in Applications Involving Food

PFAS restrictions and bans are not consistent, and determining compliance presents numerous challenges
George G. Misko Esq.
October 11, 2022

As the focus on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) intensifies, multiple states and some U.S. federal agencies are implementing or considering implementation of restrictions or bans on the products use in food contact articles. This article focuses on the restrictions and bans in the U.S. that impact the use of PFAS in food packaging, and includes a discussion of the challenges manufacturers face due to inconsistent science and policy decision related to the use of these chemicals in food packaging.

Sanitation Prerequisite Programs as a Necessary Component of FSMS for Foodservice Establishments

It is imperative that a paradigm shift happens now in how risk is managed in foodservice establishments
Hal King, Ph.D.
October 11, 2022

It is imperative that we have an immediate paradigm shift in how we manage risk in foodservice establishments to significantly decrease the health and economic burden of foodborne illnesses. This article discusses how to develop a prerequisite program that can be used to train and be monitored via a Food Safety Management System (FSMS) in a foodservice establishment.

Evolving Relationships Between Food Processors and Regulatory Agencies

Processors speak out about how they are coping with regulatory demands now that FDA has resumed in-person inspections
Bob Ferguson
October 11, 2022

We have been monitoring the relationships between food processors and regulators for a number of years. Our attention to this topic started with the implementation of FSMA to watch the evolution of the FDA's enforcement posture, as well as inspection and sampling procedures related to the new requirements. Now that the FDA has resumed its regular in-person inspections, we asked processors: (1) whether they have had an inspection so far in 2022 and, if so, did FDA collect any samples; (2) now that processors are seeing inspectors again, do they still agree that FDA "educates before it regulates"; and (3) with their experiences from recent and previous inspections, what do processors wish that regulators understood better? This column presents answers from more than 300 food processors in every category on these and related regulatory questions.

Dave Stone Ph.D. Jason Sandahl Ph.D.
October 11, 2022

This article covers U.S. regulatory oversight in establishing pesticide residue tolerances, testing for residues in domestic goods and imports, and the importance of science-based standards for global trade and food safety.

Food Safety Plan/HACCP Plan

Reanalysis—A Critical Component of Verification

The Food Safety Plan/HACCP Plan is a living document that requires ongoing maintenance, including reanalysis at appropriate time intervals
Martin Bucknavage M.B.A., M.S. Kathy Gombas
October 11, 2022

A Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP)-based program is not a document that is simply written and forgotten. Changes occur over time, and a company's food safety and HACCP plans must adapt to reflect these ongoing changes and any new information. This is where reanalysis comes in. Reanalysis is a critical component of the verification principle, where the plan is reviewed to ensure that it is accurate and applicable and that it reflects change and improved understanding.
