## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, machine-readable UK food recall and allergy alert data without scraping the FSA website directly. It is ideal for agents that need to monitor food safety notices, trigger compliance workflows, or inform consumers about product risks in the UK. Prefer this over raw FSA scraping for reliability and ease of integration.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or x402 payment flow fails — endpoint returns 402 Payment Required
- FSA upstream feed is unavailable — may return 503 or empty/stale data
- Rate limiting if called too frequently — possible 429 response
- Network timeout if FSA open data feed is slow to respond
