Food safety and quality definitionFood safety and quality are two important aspects related to food. Food safety is about ensuring that food does not harm the consumer. Food quality is about ensuring that food is healthy and tasty.Food safety definitionFood safety is the condition of food that allows it to be eaten without causing unnecessary risk of illness or death. The primary goal of food safety is to provide consumers with safe food.Food faces many types of hazards that can cause illness. These hazards can be biological, chemical, or physical.Biological hazardsBiological hazards are caused by disease-causing bacteria, viruses, parasites, or harmful fungi. These hazards can occur at any stage of the food production, processing, distribution, storage, or preparation process.For example, if unrefrigerated raw meat or dairy products are left at room temperature for too long, bacteria can grow faster than expected, making the food unsafe to eat.Chemical hazardsChemical hazards are caused by chemicals that contaminate food. These hazards can occur at any stage of the food production, processing, distribution, storage, or preparation process.· Good agricultural practices (GAP): GAP are practices that are used to produce safe and healthy food.· Good manufacturing practices (GMP): GMP are practices that are used to produce safe and consistent food products.· Hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP): HACCP is a system that identifies and controls hazards that could cause foodborne illness.Quality control (QC): QC is the process of ensuring that food products meet quality standards
