From earliest times food has been significantly vulnerable to exploitation, and there's an extended history of food legislation with the aim of preventing consumers being either cheated or poisoned. Measures for the protection of the consumer against the adulteration of food and drink were among the earliest examples of social legislation. Despite the unquestioned improvement in food purity and in marketing practices caused by this legislation consumers are more and more uneasy about the security and quality of the modern food supply. Important elements of Food Safety include general principles of food law, food hygiene and Genetically Modified Organisms labeling. Proposes to update and extend legislative controls to ensure the safety of animal feed were also included in food safety regulations.

The surveillance systems have a twin purpose. Initial is to notice, control and stop foodborne disease outbreaks. Most of the countries have such surveillance and response systems in place; however, the effectiveness and coverage of these systems vary from country to country. Many of us define such foodborne disease outbreak investigations, together with their detection and control through food safety mechanisms and discuss the food safety response as well as the importance of developing emergency response plans for food safety. The second is to tell long-term problems, like distinguishing priorities and developing a policy for the control and prevention of foodborne illness; estimating the burden of foodborne diseases and monitoring trends, and evaluating foodborne disease prevention and control methods. However, only a number of countries have surveillance systems in place that may meet these objectives, severely impacting the potency of their food control systems.

A food-borne infectious disease is a quite common health problem that currently affects millions around the world. The burden of diseases caused by these food-borne pathogens remains mostly unknown. Concern over pathogenic and spoilage microorganisms in foods is increasing because of the increase in outbreaks of food-borne diseases (FBDs). The majority of food-borne diseases have either a bacterial or viral etiology. Preventive aspects are geared toward holding food (including liquid and alternative enteral feeds) at the proper temperature, storing food in a hygienic manner and preventing cross contamination. Foodborne diseases are often caused by biological, chemical or physical hazards.
