## Details

- Record Type: 483

- Inspection Date: 2009-02-17
- Product Type: Food
- Office Name: New York District Office
- Summary: On February 17, 2009, the FDA issued a Form 483 to Peregrina Cheese Corp., a cheese manufacturer located at 342 Ten Eyck Street, Brooklyn, NY. The inspection was conducted from February 9 to February 17, 2009. Javier Peregrina, President, was the recipient of the report.

The inspection revealed several observations regarding production procedures and facility maintenance. Specifically, on February 9, 2009, uncovered strawberry and lemon flavor gelatins were found in the walk-in refrigerator. Employees were observed not wearing protective sleeve covers for their forearms while grating Queso Cotija Cheese and packaging Flan, which was noted as a repeated observation from a previous inspection on December 18, 2007. Additionally, employees failed to remove unsecured jewelry or other objects that could fall into food. The plant's construction was also cited as not allowing floors to be kept in good repair. These observations indicate a failure to take all reasonable precautions to prevent contamination from various sources and maintain the facility adequately.
