FDA WARNING_LETTER - Dough-To-Go Inc - November 07, 2025

The FDA issued a Warning Letter to Dough-To-Go, Inc., located in Santa Clara, California, following an inspection conducted from October 29 to November 7, 2025. The investigation identified significant violations of the Current Good Manufacturing Practice, Hazard Analysis, and Risk-Based Preventive Controls for Human Food regulation. These failures led the FDA to classify the company"s products as adulterated, meaning they were prepared or held under unsanitary conditions. Key issues included the failure to implement sanitation and allergen controls, as evidenced by employees using soiled towels to wipe equipment and hands before handling food, and the presence of spilled nuts in storage areas. Inspectors also found evidence of pest activity, including rodent droppings and gnats, as well as poorly maintained exterior grounds that attracted vermin. Furthermore, the company was cited for repeat violations involving frayed conveyor belts and using ineffective sanitizing solutions that lacked proper chemical concentrations. To resolve these issues, Dough-To-Go, Inc. must submit a written response to the FDA within 15 working days. This response must outline the specific corrective actions taken to fix the violations and prevent them from happening again. Failure to address these concerns may result in legal consequences, such as product seizures or the suspension of the facility"s registration.
