The AuditQ Recall Index stood at 112.4 in September 2026. That is up 21.0 points on August and 10.5 points above September 2025. The EU's RASFF published 459 notifications. The US counted 53 incidents: 48 at the FDA, filed as 104 recall notices, and 5 recalls and public health alerts at USDA's FSIS.
The index compares each month's food-safety incidents with the monthly average of 2022–2025, fixed at 100. An incident is one EU RASFF notification, or in the US one FDA recall event or one USDA FSIS recall or public health alert: the FDA often files dozens of recall notices for a single problem, and the index counts the problem once.
