Food safety is a given, when a consumer purchases food they expect it to be safe and fit to eat. The responsibility for ensuring food is safe to eat rests with the farmer (sometimes called the primary producer), the manufacturer or processor (if the food is prepared in a factory), the distributor and wholesaler (the people responsible for transfering the food from the manufacturer to the shop or to the door in the case of direct sales or mail order), the retailer and the consumer themselves.
Cadbury Schweppes has implemented a product recall for the second time in two years due to a nut allergy warning being omitted from packaging. The previous recall of over a million bars of chocolate followed a Salmonella outbreak.
