A smartphone displaying social media icons is placed on a weathered wooden table beside a partially finished coffee drink in a clear glass with a metal straw. Part of a white plate is visible in the top right corner.

If you’re tired of only finding out about food recalls on social media, use this free email alert.

Tell me where you live, and I’ll tell you when a food recall might actually affect your household.

Food Recall Alert ✳︎ Free to Use ✳︎ Delivered via Email ✳︎

Sign up for email alerts about new food recalls in your area.

I compile data from FDA and USDA recall notices and will email you if one may affect your household. It runs every hour, so it emails you if any products in your area are affected.

This is a free service. I built it for myself and realized others might want it. I will not send marketing emails, and you can unsubscribe at any time.

I also will not sell or keep your data for any purpose. We are all sick of that.

ZIP code only — we never need your street address.

What should we tell you about?

Choose the kinds of food recalls that matter to your household. You can select as many as you want.

Free. No marketing emails. Just recall alerts.

How it works

  1. You enter your ZIP and email

  2. Every 4 hours, my code checks official government food recall sources

  3. It then looks at all the subscribers to check if there are recalls in their state or nationwide

  4. If there’s a match, you get an email alert with what was recalled, which package to check, why it matters, and what to do.

If you’d like to keep it free or send me some coffee money to “fuel” more stuff like this, that’s more than welcome!
