Output
Returns up to 20 FDA food recall enforcement records matching the query, each containing the recalling firm name, recall classification (Class I/II/III), reason for recall (e.g. allergen, microbial contamination), product description, distribution pattern, recall initiation and termination dates, and recall number — sourced live from openFDA.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Can you search the FDA food recall records for peanut butter and show me the top 5 results, including the recalling firm, classification, and reason for each recall?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://agent402.tools/api/food-recallsWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need live, authoritative FDA food recall data — e.g. checking allergen alerts, verifying whether a specific product or brand has been recalled, or investigating contamination reasons. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured, filterable recall records with official classifications and dates. No API key required.
Side effects
- No results found for the search term — FDA database may have no matching recalls
- Query string missing — required 'q' parameter not provided returns error
- Limit out of range — values outside 1-20 may be rejected or clamped
- openFDA upstream outage — live data dependency may cause intermittent failures
- Overly broad query returns too many unrelated results across product categories
