Is my food safe?
You’ll discover the regulations in place to ensure the food you buy is safe to eat whether it’s produced within Europe or further afield and explore the food scandals that shaped the legislation before reflecting on the risks foods might pose to our health and analysing your level of trust.
Is my food nutritious?

Understand the evidence producers must provide before they can make claims about their products and discover how to analyse food headlines so you can make informed choices.
Is my food sustainable?
