Food & Chemicals Unpacked: Economic Adulteration: Secrets in the Sauce
Economic Adulteration: Secrets in the Sauce
In this episode, we cover "economic adulteration," which is intentionally changing a food product's composition for an economic motive (e.g., removing or substituting a valuable ingredient or part of a food). This is often referred to as "food fraud." Keller and Heckman Partner Tony Pavel joins us to provide an overview of the history of economic adulteration in the U.S. and more globally, and how this phenomenon has contributed to the evolution of food safety laws. We cover a few different examples of economically adulterated food products, which shed light on the ongoing challenges that regulators, food safety experts, and supply chain managers face in addressing this issue. We also discuss what companies should be doing to mitigate risk.
