Sometimes I wonder what it is the FDA actually does. I'm only partially joking. Like - if I took samples from my own kitchen from all unopened groceries and sent them to a lab to test for toxins - what would be found?
The FDA advises companies to issue “voluntary recalls ” and no one is punished.
The agency found elevated levels of lead and chromium in six brands: La Fiesta, sold at La Superior and SuperMercados; Marcum, sold at Save A Lot; MTCI, sold at SF Supermarket; Swad, sold at Patel Brothers; Supreme Tradition, sold at Dollar Tree and Family Dollar; and El Chilar, sold at La Joya Morelense.
The FDA was able to detect levels of lead in the affected ground cinnamon products through product testing. Consumers should not eat, sell or serve the ground cinnamon products and instead, should discard them immediately, per the FDA’s recommendations. The FDA is also recommending that the manufacturers of the products recall them, with the exception of MTCI cinnamon because the agency has not been able to reach the company..

They found lead in a company’s products, and they’re not advising the company to recall it. Because they won’t answer the agency’s phone call. The government agency.
In a just world they’d send a squad to the HQ of the consumable’s company, hold a trial for the executives inside the office, and sentence them to death before pushing them out the skyscraper’s window.
