Feds seize food products from IL warehouse

An Illinois warehouse is under federal investigation and US Marshals have seized food products from it. A warrant issued by the federal district court of Northern Illinois was issued after the Food and Drug Administration reported unsanitary conditions at the Chetak Chicago LLC warehouse in Streamwood, Illinois. Among the findings at the warehouse were “rodents and rodent carcases, gnawed product packaging and significant amounts of rodent fecal matter.”

The FDA says among the goods seized by U.S. Marshalls on Monday (October 17th) were peanuts, flour, and rice. The Illinois Department of Public Health has had those items embargoed since mid-August.
