Introduction: Background
When it comes to intentional food contamination, there is often a misguided notion that it won’t happen, but the truth is that it does happen. There have been numerous accounts of intentional food contamination over the years. The food supply chain is fragile and although there are strict regulations in place to address food safety, there are no current regulations to address food defense. Stakeholders in the food industry must put aside the notion that ‘it can’t happen to me’ and begin to think about how to protect their food businesses and industries from attacks on our food.
