I am surprised Amazon has not run into Food safety issues / lawsuits by now.

  Hard to ship fake perishable goods via Amazon. Food fraud is way more lucrative on bigger scales.

    You'd be surprised how much 3rd party grocery is sold via FBA... It's a nice income stream done correctly.

    Doesnt have to be perishable. Things like Biscuits, Cereals, Nuts, Dates, ground items of various kinds etc.

  As frequently as I've seen BBQ sauce in glass containers, for instance, 1 starred as shattered on delivery, I am too. To be fair, these items should not have been placed within FBA in the first place, according to "policy". Inbound employees are supposed to filter products for policy violations (specifically in this instance liquid in glass containers over 4ozs). Not the employees fault..?, they are overwhelmed. Just 1 of many examples we run into as a fulfillment service. Merry Christmas everyone!

    >As frequently as I've seen BBQ sauce in glass containers, for instance, 1 starred as shattered on delivery, Last week I had a package show up with six 5lb weight plates, a book and toothpaste in the same big box. Even if the toothpaste hadn't been crushed to the point of failing and getting everywhere, the book was completely mangled by 30 pounds of weight plates sliding around in an oversized box for God only knows how long. I ordered some sea salt scrub earlier this year and same kinda thing, they just tossed it in an oversized box with a bunch of other stuff... by the time it got to me the lid had cracked and come off and oil/salt was all over everything. It doesn't surprise me they do similar with food.
