Are food additives widely used and highly effective? What is your understanding of food additives and their use?
As long as food additives are not used improperly or in excess, there will be no problems.
Which public food safety incident was caused by a problem with food additives? It’s all due to problems in the production process of the food itself. It’s ridiculous that when there are problems with food, the blame is always placed on food additives; it’s like when a criminal kills someone with a kitchen knife, and in the end, even the person who sold that knife is punished as well ； The CCTV building caught fire due to fireworks, and those who transported and sold the fireworks were sentenced.
There’s nothing to do; it’s joint liability. Problems can still arise with food additives; their use is subject to strict controls, as too little or too much of them is not good.
1. What is the connection between food safety responsibilities and food additives? Is there a connection between the two? 2. It’s fine to use food additives in moderate amounts; just like adding salt or sugar when cooking, more or less of these additives can affect the taste and shelf life, but they are not toxic. The first aspect, chronic toxicity, cannot be assessed ； Second, talking about toxicity without mentioning the dose is nothing but nonsense. 3. The biggest risk factor in food safety is microorganisms, not food additives.
