[HIGHLIGHTS] How to prevent diseases caused by eating contaminated food

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) launched the #EUChooseSafeFood campaign. The campaign focuses on foodborne diseases, contaminants and bee health.

More than 91,000 cases of salmonellosis are reported in Europe each year. The EU's food safety system ensures that all citizens have the right to know how the food they eat is produced, processed, packaged, labelled and sold. The European Union has adopted regulatory provisions to ensure that unsafe food is not placed on the market.
