On August 8, 2012, the FDA issued a Warning Letter to Suwannee Dairy following a June 12-13, 2012, inspection. The letter cited violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.

A dairy cow sold for slaughter on September 21, 2011, was found to have 0.44 ppm of penicillin in kidney tissue, exceeding the 0.05 ppm tolerance (21 C.F.R. 556.510), rendering the food adulterated under 21 U.S.C. 342(a)(2)(C)(ii).
