Data Sources

Official records in, clearer information out.

RecallBite normalizes public information while preserving the original agency record, official link and source-check time.

01

FDA

FDA food-safety recall announcements support timely consumer notices. The separate weekly openFDA enforcement dataset supports historical search and enrichment; it is not used on its own to trigger public alerts.

02

USDA FSIS

The documented FSIS Recall API is the preferred source for meat, poultry and processed-egg notices. If it rejects a server request, RecallBite uses the official federal food-safety RSS feed and retains the FSIS notice URL.

03

UK Food Standards Agency

The FSA Food Alerts service supplies product recalls, allergy alerts, affected products and consumer advice under the Open Government Licence.

04

Freshness

Every detail page shows the issuing agency, official source link and the time RecallBite last checked the record. A visible warning appears when a source becomes stale.
