Traditions: In the United States, while there are no specific "traditions" associated with World Food Safety Day, various events and activities are organized to observe the day. Government agencies, such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), often participate in promoting food safety awareness. Educational institutions, industry groups, and health professionals may also engage in advocacy and educational campaigns.
What People Do:
The objective of World Food Safety Day is not only to inform but also to prompt action at all levels—from policy makers and industries to consumers—to ensure that the food we eat is safe and healthy.
