It's Thursday, September 25, 2025. From new FDA transparency initiatives to debates over halal labeling, here are today’s key developments in global food safety.
The Food and Drug Administration has launched a new transparency policy for the reporting of foodborne illness outbreak investigations.
As part of the initiative the public, industry stakeholders and other entities will have access to two new resources once an outbreak investigation has ended.
Recalls in the United Kingdom and Europe increased in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the first three months of the year, according to data from Sedgwick’s European Product Safety and Recall Index.
The Food and Drug Administration has updated information for four foodborne illness outbreaks.
A review has provided evidence that participation in a regional program contributed to changes in policies and the uptake of food irradiation.
The report evaluates the impacts of food safety programs from 2020 to 2024 in the Asia Pacific region.
The USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) does not get involved in defining religious standards, such as what is or is not halal. Saad Ali at Main Halal Meats in Harrisburg, PA, appreciates this fact.
