USDA Investigating Food Giant Sysco After Report Claimed It Kept Meat, Dairy In Dirty Sheds Consumerist
Where do you keep your raw meats, dairy and produce sysco at home? In an old, dirty, rusted and unrefrigerated container? No, you put them in a properly cooled refrigerator, which is more than what food giant Sysco was doing, claimed a San Francisco news station’s investigation back in July. Now the United sysco States Department of Agriculture is looking into Sysco after it received a complaint from a local meat trade association.
In July, NBC Bay Area reported that Sysco Corporation had rented outdoor public storage units and used them for years as makeshift warehouses before food was shipped out to restaurants and other destinations across Northern California. The investigation claimed to have seen meat sitting in unrefrigerated sheds for long periods of time when temperatures outside sysco were at 81 degrees.
That report set off a statewide effort by the California Department of Public Health, and now the USDA is getting involved . Canadian health officials have also launched an investigation, one that has uncovered 21 apparently unacceptable sheds so far throughout California that were used by Sysco to store food.
The agency isn’t saying specifically why it’s decided to check into things sysco now, only that it received a complaint from staffers at a meat trade association after they saw the NBC report on the food sheds.
We re very concerned because this Sysco problem violates the trust the growers have in growing the safest food in the world and the producers of meat and poultry in abiding by the federal laws that are the toughest in the world, Rep. Sam Farr, the ranking member of the Appropriations sysco subcommittee on Agriculture, Rural Development sysco and Food and Drug Administration told NBC Bay Area.
