Concisely, supply issues can cause damage to companies. A company running food staff business must be very couscous about the suppliers. Before processing the goods, there should be a proper food test to help in identifying any poison in the food. Additionally, the food company should encourage the government health official to carry out standardization tests for food…

As Americans, we are often blinded by the food industry to think that what we are putting into our bodies is to fuel our bodies, not to profit major companies. However, the whole idea of food production is to make food for the general public in the quickest, easiest way possible. When producing a mass product, things must be done efficiently and effectively, regardless of who or what it is affecting. Major businesses try to get the most bang for their buck, and it often has high stakes for those involved in the hard labor of the food industry.…
The first interesting fact that I found out about Food Inc was that their tomatoes are ripened with ethane gas. I thought that was interesting because I never thought that they did that but they do. Ripening tomatoes on gas makes them get to people like us two times quicker because it is like putting them on steroids. This makes you really think about what you eat and what you are putting into your body. This makes me not want to eat tomatoes because the ethane gas can’t be good for the human body. I think people who do this to their food should be punished and should not be allowed to sell tomatoes. They are probably affecting so many people now and they will not feel it till 20 years now. The word that I think that relates to this is epidemiology. Epidemiology is the study of patterns of disease and disability in a population. I think that relates by how some day people…
on this product. Everyone deserves to know what they’re eating and if the company doesn’t inform customers of the types of ingredients inside their products then I believe they fail on their part and deserve to get blamed. However if the company does take all those precautions and the customer still ends up with an illness or gets obese then that’s the individual’s responsibility. Overall I believe that its both individual and corporate responsibility for any type…
I think the main ethical issue in this case is the fact that food not approved for human consumption was allowed to be given to humans. Before humans are allowed to be given these foods, long term studies should be conducted.…
Food safety has become an important concern for government, with Canada’s Public Health Agency (PHAC) approximating 4 million cases of foodborne illness annually. Although the food safety is a shared responsibility among government, industry and consumer, Industry is faced with the fundamental objective of implementing an effective food safety management system with the goal of meeting government regulatory requirements. The importance of food production companies creating food safety values with ethics and beliefs that are intertwined with the goal of meeting government requirements cannot be over emphasized. With about 97% of food poisoning outbreak attributed to food handler error, and a great number from management ‘commitment’, there is therefore a need to incorporate specific conducts and views into food safety management systems if an effective food safety is to ne achieved in these modern times.…
There were three main business activities that were distinguished in this business report. Firstly, the Sanlu scandal that occurred in 2008 which involved the chemical compound melamine milk which was found in infant formula and other food supplies. This incident truly damaged their reputation and left consumers with less faith in the company’s products. Secondly, their ‘Milk For Kiwis ‘scheme , since this programme is helping New Zealand children who are struggling with poverty. This has left society with mixed views as it can be seen from two sides of the spectrum, it is good because they are helping combat the poverty issue that New Zealand is experiencing. However, some argue that they are only doing it to take attention away from the rising price of dairy products and thus it could be cynical corporate social responsibility. Lastly, the botulism scare has heavily damaged Fonterra’s relationship with their consumers and as a result, the consumers are doubtful of their products. Hence why Fonterra’s image is currently not looking favorable, but it may be possible for Fonterra to regain the positive image it used to have if it performs positively in the future.…
