Food Alerts
Food Alerts are the FSA's way of letting local authorities and consumers know about problems associated with food and, in some cases, provide details of specific action to be taken.
They were previously known as Food Hazard Warnings and were issued under four categories (A, B, C and D), but the new system took effect from 25 October 2004.
Now they are issued under two categories:
- Food Alerts: for Action (replacing A, B and C)
- Food Alerts: for Information (replacing Category D)
Food Alerts are also copied to Consultants in Communicable Disease Control, Trading Standards Officers and food trade organisations, to alert them to current food issues.
They are often issued in conjunction with a product withdrawal or recall by a manufacturer, retailer or distributor.
You can find our most recent Food Alerts listed below.
