And These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

Here are a list of industry websites that may be helpful to you.

http://www.foodsafetynews.com/

Great source of current food safety news. Always an interesting or fun read for me.

https://www.fda.gov/food/guidanceregulation/fsma/

When I need updates or more detailed information on FSMA. Given the details and changes that have happened in the past, I always go back to the FDA website to assure that I know what I am talking about.

https://www.fda.gov/food/guidanceregulation/retailfoodprotection/foodcode/ucm374275.htm

When I need to check out the requirements for restaurant food safety which is much more specific to a kitchen type operation but very similar to a food processing facility.

https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cms_ia/default.html

When I need to approve or check up on my food suppliers for either import alerts or refusals. It does take a little time to use the website but check it at least monthly. You just cannot rely on only an audit certificate.
