A federal judge ordered Delaware-based Roos Foods Inc.—a manufacturer of ready-to-eat cheeses—to pay $100,000 for its role as the source of a 2014 Listeria outbreak, according to the Associated Press.
In January the company pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count of violating the federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Roos Foods, Inc. and its owners entered into a civil agreement, barring the distribution of any more products unless FDA confirms its operations are incompliance with all federal and food safety regulations.
