It is possible, but do you know something or just speculating? If you do, I wouldn’t mind hearing of it.
This article is a perfectly legitimate criticism of overreach in government.
I would personally speculate that it is just as possible that the incompetent FDA contaminated their own samples.
I don't have the time to do look backs. Suffice it to say that I do know Listeria contamination in cheese is a common problem as a review of product recalls in just the last 60 days attests for several firms, including Sargento.
I count 14 such recalls.
FReegards!
As a PhD medical microbiologist I agree that “I would personally speculate that it is just as possible that the incompetent FDA contaminated their own samples.” especially if there is a little grifting or just plain swindling on the line going on.
The FDA as a whole and each division and each person must have a thorough and competent examination. I just wonder how old their procedures are, etc., and if their “scientists” are not going to yearly or q 2-3 year qualification updates. The result is they either get fired or get them. Microbiology and all its variants aren’t static and must not be.
