An FDA inspection of Bimbo Bakeries USA in Sacramento, CA, revealed significant deficiencies in their hazard analysis and environmental pathogen control for ready-to-eat bread products.

Additionally, the firm failed to protect human food by-products intended for animal food from contamination, which was a repeat observation.
