Summary:
"USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) will begin sharing data collected by food safety inspectors on Data.gov. The agency’s nearly 7,500 inspectors cover 6,000 meat, poultry and processed egg facilities nationwide, and increasing transparency could help consumers make better buying decisions, motivate individual establishments to improve performance and lead to industrywide improvements in food safety, the agency said."
