Food Safety
Food Safety means that when a person consumes a certain food, the food does not have any adverse effect on health. Therefore, safe food does not mean that the food does not contain any harmful elements, but it means that the food does not cause any harm when consumed.
Food is directly related to life, and once a person consumes food, it is difficult to determine the cause of the damage, Every year, large and small food safety accidents occur, and accordingly, consumers’ expectations and demands for safe food are increasing. From food production to consumption, a management system for safe food is required.
