New Food Safety Rules Wanted

D
monella in peanut butter, mangoes
and cantaloupe have been linked to
more than 400 illnesses and as many
as seven deaths, according to the
Centers for Disease Control. The
actual number of those sickened is
likely much higher.
The FDA’s proposed rules would
require farmers to take new precau
tions against contamination, to in
clude making sure workers' hands
are washed, irrigation water is clean,
and that animals stay out of fields.
Food manufacturers will have to
submit food safety plans to the gov
ernment to show they are keeping
their operations clean.
Many responsible food compa
nies and farmers are already follow
ing the steps that the FDA would
now require them to take. But offi
cials say the requirements could
have saved lives and prevented ill
nesses in some of the large-scale
outbreaks that have hit the country
in recent years.
