Despite the decline in the number of cases related to fake foods and foods of poor quality, problems remain serious in the market. Food-born diseases remain responsible for high levels of sickness and mortality in the general population, particularly for at-risk groups, such as infants, young children, and the elderly. The most notorious case involved low-quality milk powder in Fuyang, in east China’s Anhui Province, whih caused the death of a dozen babies.
In my personal opinion, I think the responsibility goes for the most part to the food produces especially those who fail to meet safety standards. In order to sell more products, some food producers may even intenionally use various chemical, such as pesticides, animal drugs etc., during manufacturing and processing just to make food look or taste good without taking people’s life into consideration. As we all know, food additives and contaminants can adversely affect the health.
In this regard, in order to reduce the incidence and economic consequences of food-born diseases, the supervision of food production should be stepped up. What’s more, it is important to drastically increase penalties on those who neglect food safety statutes.
After all, the Food Safety Department in our country should educate consumers about the risks presented in food and the safe food handling behaviors that can help minimize those risks. Nevertheless, it is our own awareness of good life style and hygiene habit that a healthy life relies on.
