Many of these recalls were due to undeclared allergens, foreign objects, or contaminates such as Listeria, Salmonella, and E. coli ([source](https://www.foodsafetymagazine.com/enewsletter/a-look-back-at-2019-food-recalls/#:~:text=While%20it's%20always%20possible%20that,and%20125%20by%20USDA%20FSIS.)). Oftentimes, these recalls could have been prevented by storing the food product properly and cleaning the equipment — such as a label applicator machine — appropriately.
