How to check food & drink
- Product & package
- Brand, flavor, package size and UPC, when listed.
- Lot & date
- Batch code and the exact best-by, use-by or production date.
- USDA mark
- For meat or poultry, the establishment number when the notice specifies one.
1. Keep the packaging close
Photograph the label and printed codes before discarding any packaging. Similar products may come in different sizes or lots, so the product name alone is not enough.
2. Check both food agencies
FDA and USDA FSIS publish different food notices. Start with FDA for most foods, drinks and infant formula; check FSIS for meat, poultry and processed egg products. Public health alerts can matter even when there is no recall.
3. Follow the matching notice
Compare every identifier in the official announcement, then follow its return, disposal and cleaning instructions. Do not eat or give away food identified in the notice.
Official checking resources

Food & drink recall questions
Why are food recalls split between FDA and USDA?
The agencies oversee different products. Most foods are covered by FDA; FSIS handles meat, poultry and processed egg products. A check across both sources helps when a product’s responsibility is unclear.
Is matching the brand enough?
No. Compare the product, package size and every lot or date restriction listed in the official notice. Some recalls cover all lots; others affect only a narrow production run.
What if the product is not listed here?
Check the official agency pages and the manufacturer. This site indexes the notices available in its saved source data, and a missing result does not establish that food is safe.
