    Food Contamination?

    Contamination is the presence of a constituent,


    impurity, or other undesirable element that spoils, corrupt,
    makes unfit, or infects a material or environment.

    food which makes it unfit for consumption.

    How to identify them?

    Food contamination is when food is contaminated with


    microorganisms or substances and eating it could result in
    foodborne disease. It could result to any undesired change
    in the natural colour, taste or texture of food items which
    makes it unfit for consumption.
