Hi Everett,
I’ve finally gotten around to putting a link to your site up. My apologies for the delay.
One question, and I don’t know if blogger will do this or not, but as my own site is fairly food-specific, I was wondering if there were a way to tag your entries that relate specifically to food recalls; I personally would find that very useful.
Thanks,
Law for Food
Hello Law for Food blogger. Great blog you have there, and thanks for the blogroll link!
While I do not tag the blog entries at this time (It seemed to create too much duplicate content and was a search engine optimization issue I’m trying to avoid until I get the time to move the blog over to WordPress platform.) what I do have is a feed that I compile from USDA press releases, which can be found here: https://www.usrecallnews.com/rss/recalled-meat-and-poultryrss.xml
That feed belongs to the entries on the page that you see here:
https://www.usrecallnews.com/meat_poultry.php
If you subscribe to that feed using your blog reader of choice, it will help keep you up-to-date on the latest meat and poultry recalls. You could also subscribe to the FDA section, but that would also get you recalls about pharmaceuticals, medical devices and other areas covered by the Food and Drug Administration.
Hope that helps!
