Abstract
Food safety and quality control ensure the food is safe for human consumption. Proper food supply chain management benefits both the manufacturers and consumers. Quality assurance and quality control processes are implemented to supply safe food and beverage products to the consumer. National regulatory guidelines of each country monitor the activities of food business operators, like the United States Food and Drug Administration, the European Food Safety Authority, China Food and Drug Administration, and the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India. Food manufacturers are required to meet the given standards of quality and food safety and need to get certified to ensure the defence mechanism against many foodborne diseases. These arguments are debated for decades. On the other side, what about the perception of quality control and effectiveness? In fact, the difference between real-time checks and the evidence of already carried out checks should be evaluated. This chapter discusses this problem—and the possible solution on behalf of the final recipients—in detail.
