Informarsi; condividere l'informazione; denunciare.
Per me la cosa peggiore è che l'informazione (di una certa
stampa) latita.
Quando (raramente) ci sono in televisione informazioni su
sequestri di cibo scaduto, avariato, mal conservato, "taroccato",
sarà che mi distraggo, ma non sento mai i
nomi delle aziende coinvolte, dei ristoranti che acquistavano da
questi produttori/truffatori, ecc.
Si parla semplicemente di sequestri effettuati in una tal zona,
un tal comune.
Distruggendo l'economia di quelle aziende che in quel
territorio si comportano correttamente, con sacrifici e difficoltà,
e che si trovano schiacciate tra imprenditori disonesti, malavita
organizzata, pubblica amministrazione assente o addormentata, mala
informazione.
Le eccellenze italiane.
Il bello è che noi abbiamo in Italia, a Parma, l'EFSA,
l'European Food Safety
Authority , che permette anche di tenersi
informati con una newsletter (essendo l'EFSA a Parma,
la newsletter si può ricevere solo in inglese... ).
Informarsi; condividere l'informazione; denunciare.

Record Seizures in
Worldwide ‘Food Fraud’ Operation
https://www.occrp.org/en/daily/5107-record-seizures-in-worldwide-food-fraud-operation
Interpol and Europol coordinated with national
agencies across 57 countries to carry out their
largest-ever seizure of dangerous fake food and drink,
news releases by the two agencies said Wednesday.
More than 10,000 metric tonnes and one million litres
of fake food and drink were seized. Numerous arrests
were made and investigations are ongoing to “identify and
disrupt the organized crime networks behind the
trafficking in fake goods,” the release said.
Police, customs, national food regulatory bodies and
private sector partners worked together checking shops,
markets, airports, seaports and industrial estates between
November 2015 and February 2016.
Authorities confiscated at least 85 tonnes of
olives painted with copper sulphate to enhance their
color in Italy, several kilograms of monkey meat in
Belgium, and 11 kilograms of locusts and 20 kilograms of
caterpillars in France, the BBC said.
Enough fake alcohol was seized to fill 12,000 baths,
according to the BBC. Authorities in the United Kingdom
confiscated nearly 10,000 litres of fake or adulterated
alcohol and Greek officials more than 7,400 bottles, along
with counterfeit labels and three illicit factories, the
news release said.
Customs agents and police in Hungary, Italy,
Lithuania and Romania also found counterfeit sweets and
non-alcoholic sparkling wine intended for children,
destined for West Africa.
False labeling continues to be a problem, the releases
said, citing as examples peanuts repackaged as pine nuts
and adulterated honey found in Australia. An unconnected study by the marine conservation
advocacy group Oceana in 2014 found that around one-third of
shrimp products they tested in the US were misrepresented.
Europol’s Chris Vansteenkiste said that the results
of the operation “clearly reflect the threat that food
fraud represents,” saying how rising food prices
create the opportunity to sell fake products
within “a multi-billion criminal industry which can
pose serious potential health risks to
unsuspecting customers.”
The operation was the fifth in the Opson series, first
launched in 2011 in 10 European countries. They now
involve nearly 60 countries in every region in the world,
the Interpol-Europol news release said. The last major Opson operation a year ago saw 47 nations seize more than 2,500
tonnes of counterfeit or mislabeled food.
