November 24 (Monday) How can you eat safely amid the food safety storm?
Speaker: Teacher Chen Juncheng (Adjunct Lecturer, School of Continuing Education, Chinese Culture University)
The biggest difference between food hygiene and food safety is that the concept of food safety expands the scope of food hygiene. In addition to covering acute food poisoning, it also incorporates food safety concerns about chronic poisoning, which can better protect the public's long-term health.
In recent years, incidents such as dioxin-tainted duck eggs, beef from cows with mad cow disease, lean meat powder in pork, melamine-tainted milk powder, plasticizers, maleic acid-tainted starch, the Datong blended oil and copper chlorophyll case, as well as the more recent Changguan recycled waste oil scandal and the Namchow industrial oil incident, have left people across the country anxious and uneasy about food. It hurts both the heart and the body.
Apart from the food safety incidents that have already come to light, we should also pay attention to several food safety threats coming from different directions. For example, pesticide and sulfite residues in vegetables and fruits, veterinary drug residues in livestock products, additives in processed foods, and toxins produced during processing and cooking. So, do you know that in addition to the food safety problems of eating out, you are also making toxins at home and feeding them to your whole family?
The dietary patterns of modern society differ from those of the past agricultural society. Most people eat out, and the proportion of those who prepare meals at home is getting smaller and smaller. Even convenience stores are fighting for a share of this pie. Every morning, breakfast shops on street corners open the day of people's eating life, but do you know the potential food safety crises in these meals?
Teacher Chen Juncheng, who has served as a lecturer for chef hygiene training in Taipei City, an expert representative at Legislative Yuan public hearings, and a member of the New Taipei City Health Bureau's food safety counseling and evaluation committee for banquet restaurants, and who is currently an adjunct lecturer in the Department of Health and Nutrition at Chinese Culture University, will share how to eat safely and with peace of mind when crises are all around.
