The citizens of the U.S. believe that part of the service they receive in return for paying taxes is to be protected from food and food products that are contaminated. They depend on the FDA, USDA FSIS, state, city and county government employees assigned to food safety to ensure that food entering their grocery stores and restaurants is clean and wholesome to eat.
What exactly does that mean? How many inspectors are there? What training is provided to suppliers, distributors, retailers and manufacturers on food safety? What happens when someone fails to achieve that expectation? People become ill. Businesses close.
Each of us as a consumer must be part of the solution. In the coming days and weeks, we will look at labelling, coding, food safety laws and responsibilities. Those areas of the process that you need to know to keep your families safe will be discussed. Your questions will be answered with a real answer.
Stay tuned.
