Food Recalls

Food Bank of Central New York reviews food recall notices issued by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), and Feeding America.

If a recalled product was distributed to our partner agencies, the agencies will be notified of the recall by email and/or phone. The product will also be removed and blocked from the Food Bank inventory. If the recalled product is found at the agency, partner agencies are asked to take the following action:

  • Do not eat the product
  • Dispose of the product carefully
  • Do not provide the product to others
  • Do not puncture or otherwise open cans
  • Wash hands with warm water and soap after handling the product
