Report To The Congress


OF THE UNITED STATES





Food Salvage Industry Should Be

Prevented From Selling Unfit And

Misbranded Food To The Public



Potentially adulterated food in dirty, rusted,
swollen, and severely dented cans or torn
packages is being sold to the public and to
health care facilities. Product labels are often
missing or incomplete.

These conditions in the food salvage industry
are the same as those GAO reported in 1975.

For the most part, recommendations made in
GAO's earlier report have not been carried
out. The Food and Drug Administration and
the Department of Agriculture believe that
regulation of this industry is a relatively low
priority because there is not a significant
health risk to consumers of salvaged food
products.
