Not all of the food you eat is healthy, especially if it comes from foreign countries where it can be difficult to control quality and respect hygiene. The fact is that in 2020, in Italy, almost one food alert was issued per day with as many as 297 notifications sent to the EU, of which only 56 concerned products of national origin, while 160 came from other EU countries and 81 from countries outside the European Union.
This is what emerges from Coldiretti’s dossier on the
“blacklist of the most dangerous foods” presented by the association yesterday,
at the conclusion of the 19th International Forum on Agriculture and Food,
based on the findings of the latest report from the World Health Organization.
The EU Rapid Alert System, which, in effect, records alerts for food hazards
that have been verified due to chemical residues, mycotoxins, heavy metals,
microbiological contaminants, dioxins or additives and dyes in the EU last
year.
