Not connected · annual reconciliation blocked

Official file accessible; reporting totals not reconciled

The analysis sheet contains 2,911 primary-entry rows and the summary also totals 2,911. However, Year 7 contains 222 analysis rows versus 223 in the summary; Year 8 contains 225 versus 224. Matching overall totals do not resolve the annual discrepancy.

No reporting dataset has been imported. Annual charts, hazard rankings and product comparisons are withheld. No rows were reassigned, dropped or deduplicated to force agreement; this is not a zero-entry result.

What RFR can and cannot tell

FDA defines reportable food/feed as having a reasonable probability of serious adverse health consequences or death if used or consumed. A primary entry is the initial report from industry or public health officials—not a confirmed injury, death, recall or outbreak.

Reporting context for a verification review

Once reconciled, official hazard and commodity counts may help frame questions for food/feed controls and supplier verification. Subsequent upstream/downstream entries and amended reports are separate; this workbook’s analysis uses primary entries only.

Not a measure of food safety or incidence

The public workbook has no stable report identifiers or exposure denominator. Identical dimensions cannot establish duplicate reports. Do not infer unique incidents, company findings, causality or risk per food from these entries.

The exact commodity “ANIMAL FEED/PET FOOD” is present. There is no separate human/animal field; other commodities must not be automatically relabelled as human food. RFR excludes infant formula, dietary supplements, consumer reports and products exclusively under USDA jurisdiction.

CDC Foodborne Outbreaks

Review reported foodborne outbreak context from 1998–2023; a primary RFR entry does not establish an outbreak or human illness.

Related context only — sources use different jurisdictions, periods, observation units; records are not matched. These links establish no shared incident, causality, equivalent denominator, supplier finding or calibrated trend. Destination read failures do not mean zero events.

Annual source reconciliation · audit table, not reporting analytics

RFR years run September 8 to September 7, not calendar or fiscal years. Source month values cannot resolve a September day-boundary discrepancy.
