Title : Promotional materials for consumers and children regarding adulterated food and food safety

Abstract:

Adulterated food is produced using a variety of methods, all with the goal of maximising illicit profits: false designation of country of origin, adulteration of fake raw materials, adulteration of unauthorized raw materials, and so on. Accordingly, research and analysis is being undertaken to identify such foods. Currently, however, there is very limited means for acquisition, education, and transmission of correct information. In this study, the project team’s research results have been collected and subdivided, and subsequent information has been selected and reclassified, so that each particular target audience may easily understand and apply the disseminated information in the real world. We aim to cultivate a ‘safe eating culture’ by providing consumers and children with tips for identifying unsanitary foodstuff along with the correct knowledge about direct overseas purchases, and information assisting them in the selection of foods. This informative resource seeks to convey the importance of food safety and present concrete action plans to cope with adulterated foods.
