Vegetarian Claims/Sanitation/Changeover

Writing from the States

While discussing scheduling at my work it was purposed that a meat product was scheduled before a vegetarian product for allergen purposes and to avoid a full sanitation.

My question: Is there so sort of legislation or CFR that prevents people from running a meat product and then following it with a vegetarian product without a full sanitation?

I am really hoping that there is and if not how can this be? Q/C can be an uphill battle as many may know but its really hard to sell morals and ethics rather than a threat of fines and potential recall. It does, on the surface, seem to be a quality issue and not a safety issue.

Thanks

I'm sorry to tell you that there is not any legislation for statement of claim

HOWEVER, if you product is found to be "adulterated" e.g. meat protein found in your finished good that is not declared on the label you've not only got a yucky situation on your hands, but have lost all customer faith in your brand

So use that info at will and give the $$$ figure of what a recall actually costs (really, present them with the math; a company just decided to close rather than continue to fight and pay after their recall, the financials are staggering (and no one got sick in this case)  I wanted to include the link but Food Safety News has removed it or moved it
