food recall
-
Food recalls are an outcome food manufactures avoid at all costs. They occur when food is considered unfit for consumption or is a serious health risk to the community. They are expensive and have damaging consequence to the manufacture. Awareness of food safety has increased extensively, and there are now many systems and products to manage and ensure food safety.
Food recalls are issued by governments on a state or territorial level and are managed by FSANZ (Food Safety Australia and New Zealand). FSANZ are responsible for ensuring awareness, and that products are removed from shelves.
A few of the common causes of food recalls include:
- Foreign matters -this includes anything that has or may have fallen into the food, causing a contamination risk.
- Allergens - if a product has an undeclared allergen in it, or not clearly labeled the public must be notified.
- Biotoxin/ microbial – containing
