There has been a 400-500% increase in food recalls over baseline in the past year. Most of the recalls in the past year have been health and safety related recalls for foods that can cause harm or death.

In previous years, the majority of recalls were related to improper labeling or missed inspections, but did not actually mean the food was dangerous to consume.

This is a genuinely huge uptick in both the prevalence and severity of "accidents."
