did you know: (excerpt from article) are food recalls actually becoming more common? It might feel that way, but statistically speaking, not really. The number of food recalls classified by the Food and Drug Administration through August this year is running below historical levels. As of Aug. 18, the FDA classified 860 food reports this year, about 15% below the average for the same period over the previous five years and about 29% below the 10-year average. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2026/08/28/food-recalls-under-rfk-jr-data/91494801007/ Yes
