Contaminated and spoiled fruit juice sold to school lunch program: Food Fraud can have a substantial impact on consumer’s health, like in this case of fruit juice that was sold (including to school lunch programs) in spite of contamination with arsenic and mycotoxins. The fruit used for the juice was decomposing, and also processed in a facility that unacceptably violated hygiene and food safety standards. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) filed a lawsuit against the company, which in the meantime has ceased operations.
