The inspections revealed non-compliance with Section 805 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) and 21 CFR Part 1 Subpart L, concerning FSVP requirements.

Specifically, Pasha Food Distribution USA, Inc. failed to establish FSVPs for imported roasted eggplant from (b)(4), and dried sumac and tahini from (b)(4).
