There were two companies in cities associated with San Mateo County that received FDA citations as a result of two inspections conducted in the county over the third quarter of 2025, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
This is a 50% decrease from the number of companies cited in the previous quarter.
The citations in the county include:
- You did not clean and sanitize your utensils or equipment as frequently as necessary to protect against allergen cross-contact.
- You did not conduct operations under conditions and controls necessary to minimize the potential for allergen cross-contact.
- You did not have records documenting food hygiene and food safety training.
Both companies cited should take voluntary actions to correct their managing operations.
The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.
According to its website, the FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety and quality.
