Food contaminants hit snack world
By Charlotte Eyre
05/11/2007 - Pieces of metal may have fallen into sweet treats in the UK and E. coli is suspected in pizza and beef patties in the US, reminding snack manufacturers that both physical and pathogen contaminants can lead to costly recalls.
The news emphasises why processors must always be vigilant, as a range of safety breaches lead to food products being pulled from shelves, as well as negative publicity and a dip in consumer trust.
