As the blog owner, I suggest you take the time to read the entire document and ALL observations
I have listed only the first OBSERVATION noted in the above document :

OBSERVATION 1


All reasonable precautions are not taken to ensure that production procedures do contribute contamination from any source.
 
Specifically, no microbiological analysis is conducted or there assurance incoming animal fat will introduce pathogens into their and cause of finished product. Also, the firm's current sampling procedure for digest does preclude potential adulteration after during storage in warehouse. On 4/13/12, an employee was observed touching in-line filter oil with bare hands.
