Control of food safety in Poland

It is well known, especially from reports of the Supreme Audit Office (NIK), which regularly examines various elements of the system, that the control of food safety in Poland leaves a lot to be desired.

According to NIK, the main threats in the food chain are as follows:

– food contamination (poor food quality),

– food adulteration,

– inadequate conditions for storing and selling food,

– inadequate animal welfare conditions (inappropriate animal nutrition – bone meal, transmission of zoonotic diseases to humans),

– illegal food production.

Ice seems easy to produce as it is just frozen water. The seemingly simple production creates the potential for abuses and negligence.

Dziwny posmak lodu

Niejednokrotnie właściciele kostkarek lub lodówek z kostkarkami lub osoby przygotowujące lód w kostkach z foremek, próbując delektować się przygotowanym na lodzie napojem zauważyli, że jego posmak jest nieco „dziwny”.

Ice is like water from toilets

Recent years have brought a lot of reports about ice produced by ice cube machines in bars and restaurants and home ice makers. The results of the samples are chilling. The samples have more bacteria than the water found in toilets. Daily Mail was one of the news websites publishing this hideous information

Food and Nutrition Safety Act

The Food and Nutrition Safety Act has been in force in Poland since 28 October 2006. The food law is a set of legal acts establishing rules for the production and circulation of raw materials, food, and objects coming into contact with raw materials and food to the extent necessary to protect health and meet consumer expectations.
