From the article:
>The agency said it plans to set less non-binding “action levels” that do not require contaminated food to be removed from shelves. “Tolerance levels”, or limits, make it illegal to sell food contaminated beyond a set threshold.
From the FDA
>Action levels and tolerances represent limits at or above which FDA will take legal action to remove products from the market.
Typical junk tier rage bait journalism you can expect from the guardian.
- estearum 4mo agoYou can read the FDA letter itself: https://www.regulations.gov/document/FDA-2023-P-4826-0015 https://www.regulations.gov/document/FDA-2023-P-4826-0015 Your comment does not give a correct impression of FDA's position here. Action levels are correctly described by the article and not by whatever FDA quote you provided, which seems to imply the FDA is required to take action to remove products. Surpassing action levels do not require FDA to remove products from the market.

- fcarraldo 4mo agoThis is correct. So much misinformation being spouted here on the spurious grounds that The Guardian is an inaccurate news source.
