The US Food & Drug Administration recalled 16 food and beverage products and expanded two existing recalls during June. This figure represents a significant decline from the 38 recalls issued in May, aligning more closely with the totals seen in April and February. The recalls addressed various safety concerns, including potential contamination from Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella, and Clostridium botulinum. Additionally, the agency addressed issues regarding undeclared fish, plastic pieces, and chemical contamination. Specific allergens such as milk, peanuts, and soy were also cited in two recalls each. The agency also issued two pet food recalls due to variable levels of Vitamin D and low levels of Thiamine/B1. Notable products included cheese from Clover Hill Dairy, LLC, and various snack items from Ballester Hermanos, Pearl Milling Company.
