Retiros y alertas de seguridad alimentaria: Centroamérica y México — mayo 2026
El panorama de seguridad alimentaria en América Central, México y el Caribe durante las últimas semanas ha estado marcado por intervenciones regulatorias en torno a productos lácteos, fórmulas infantiles y quesos frescos, así como por el avance de iniciativas regionales de cooperación sanitaria. Las autoridades nacionales mantienen una vigilancia activa sobre la inocuidad microbiológica y la integridad de la cadena de frío, especialmente ante el inicio del fenómeno El Niño previsto para el período mayo-julio de 2026, que añade presión sobre la conservación y distribución de alimentos perecederos. A continuación, presentamos un resumen de las alertas y desarrollos más relevantes emitidos por organismos oficiales en la región.

Monthly Food Safety Recall Bulletin: May 2026
The past 30 days have produced a particularly active food safety landscape, with a single ingredient contamination event in the United States cascading into dozens of downstream recalls across multiple product categories. Regulators on both sides of the Atlantic and in the southern hemisphere issued alerts spanning Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat dairy and cured meats, Salmonella in poultry and powdered ingredients, undeclared allergens linked to labelling and process failures, and physical contamination across multiple categories.

April 2026 Food Safety Recall Bulletin: Listeria, Salmonella and E. coli Dominate Global Alerts
The March–April 2026 period saw a notable concentration of foodborne pathogen-related recalls and outbreak investigations across multiple continents. Listeria monocytogenes continued to feature prominently — with a fatal outbreak in France, cascading cheese recalls in Canada, and a cured-meat recall in the United Kingdom — while Salmonella drove significant activity in Ireland, Canada, and the United States. A cold-chain failure triggering a Clostridium botulinum risk in garlic products, combined with a large-scale Salmonella discovery in dried dairy powder in the US, reinforced the recurring importance of robust temperature management across the entire food production and distribution chain. This bulletin summarises the key recalls and alerts issued by major regulatory authorities over the past thirty days.
