Food Alerts are issued by the Food Standards Agency to inform the
public, local authorities and the food industry about potentially
dangerous food.
Environmental Health and Trading Standards Departments receive the
warnings and take the appropriate action where necessary. This may
include:
issuing a local press release;
mailshoting relevant businesses in the district;
telephoning or
visiting businesses to check the product has been withdrawn from
sale.
Further details about the national food alert system and details of
all food alerts can be found at The Food Standards Agency website in
