FDA finds Salmonella senftenberg at Dairy Farmers of America Milk Plant

By Bill Marler, Esq.

According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) after conducting an inspection at Dairy Farmers of America in Minnesota, FDA investigators documented serious violations of the Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations for foods, Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR), Part 110 Current Good Manufacturing Practice in Manufacturing, Packing, or Holding Human Food (CGMP) regulations.

In addition, FDA investigators performed environmental sampling which identified the presence of Salmonella senftenberg in your facility. Based on FDA's analytical results for the environmental samples and inspectional findings documented during the inspection, we determined that your food products are adulterated within the meaning of section 402(a)(4) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act), 21 U.S.C. § 342(a)(4), in that they were prepared, packed or held under insanitary conditions whereby they may have been rendered injurious to health.
