Manufactured Food

This is a program designed to minimize the occurrence of foodborne illness and ensure that foods manufactured, processed, packaged or stored in Illinois are safe, wholesome, have been prepared in a sanitary manner under sanitary conditions, and are properly labeled.  Activities include inspection of food processing plants and food warehouses, embargo or recall of questionable food, complaint investigation, destruction of unwholesome food, technical consultation with establishment operators, food sampling and testing, and label evaluation.  An annual federal contract allows the division to conduct inspections and surveillance sampling as an agent of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
