Seriously, who are you supposed to trust when it comes to food safety?  There were over 50 recalls last year alone. Here are some links to sites that list recalls:

• Recalls.gov– One stop shop for recall info from FDA, CPSC, USDA, and others
• What’s On Your Plate – great blog listing food and cosmetic recalls
• ConsumerAffairs.com – Consumer Safety News
