Federal health officials warned that major retailers failed to act quickly during a dangerous infant formula recall. The FDA sent warning letters to Walmart, Target, Kroger, and Albertsons after ByHeart infant formula linked to a botulism outbreak remained on shelves days or weeks after a Nov. 11 recall.
