When you stroll down grocery aisles, it’s easy to believe the foods on the shelves are safe, trustworthy, and approved by rigorous health standards.

Sometimes, it was due to contamination risks, unsafe processing methods, or improper labeling. Instead of fixing the core problems and maintaining transparency, some companies chose to rebrand these products under different names or labels.
