Are you a parent who has complained to FDA about Similac recalls or other infant formula recalls? We would love to hear from your.

The FDA's broken food regulation system is failing to act on critical food safety and nutrition issues — including deadly produce outbreaks and heavy metals in baby food, a POLITICO investigation has revealed.

The new findings follow POLITICO reports that the FDA took months to investigate and recall contaminated infant formula — even after it learned about the first infant seriously sickened by Cronobacter sakazakii, a rare bacteria, in September.

We’re continuing to investigate how the FDA handles complaints about infant formula.
