Noteworthy quotes from this episode
“I would rather know I have Listeria in my facility and be actively trying to get rid of it, than all of a sudden having the FDA knocking on my door saying ‘Hey, 9 people were confirmed sick and the epidemiology is looking to your facility’.” – Matthew Regusci
“Every week, there's a recall. I guess that's good and bad, good they're catching it and doing the recalls, bad that there are so many, it seems.” – Francine L Shaw
