FDA seeks new initiative to boost food safety funding
FDA Commissioner Charles C. Edwards told a House subcommittee he will propose a totally new initiative to guard U.S. food with a $200 million boost to build up the safety team. He urged licensing of processors, mandatory tainted food reporting, more frequent inspections of about 60 000 plants, stronger import checks, and rapid disaster response capabilities. He cited botulism findings in a vichyssoise from Bon Vivant Newark New Jersey and in Campbell Soup chicken vegetable soup from Paris Texas as part of the push. Campbell's E M Nuckols Jr said the investigation continues and steps have been taken to improve safety and testing.
