Here in this blog I am going to talk about two different topic of unsafe food and advisory for FSSAI Registration<\/strong>. But in deep inside both are comparatively similar. The topics are consumer complaints about the Contamination of food and the law against toys inside the food packets. The recent FSSAI <\/a>advisory states that there should be no toys allowed to pack inside the edible foods packet. 95% of children as well as all the gender have been fond of free gifts inside chips and biscuits packets. Some of us still are fond of getting that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tazos are some sort of round circular disks appeared as gifts with products of Frito-Lay and its subsidiaries around the world after 1990s. Some of the Pok\u00e9mon and Simpson Tazos being well-kept in some toy museums. Here in the first half of the blog we are going to discuss about the massive marketing campaigns and the safety reasons formed in the basis of FSSAI <\/a>advisory. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Free toys as a marketing tool<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Unsafe<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The fast moving goods and service based industries found a new way to attract customers. They launched the new ways of marketing via toys, stationary, accessories and gifts. They found that people get more attractions when they started to promote gift sets with the products. It is a tremendous hike to boost the sales. Product based company <\/a>ensures some tie up with the cartoon production companies, toy-making companies etc. The companies takes the advantages of psychological impact of each customer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

People started to buy products and things. Getting more for less cost, this turned their mind set and they started purchasing more and more. Kids started to finish the chips packet and discover the surprised gifts. It enhance the sales and productions. If there is no gift cards in one packet they started to search for another by buying those two sets of packets. But they forget behind the unsafe stability of health and food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mandatory of FSSAI \u2013 Unsafe Food under the Food safety and standards Act, 2006<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The FSSAI <\/a>or food safety and standards act was introduced in 2006 with the intention to promote healthy standards in the food safety industry. It enable to create science based standards in the food industry and food safety authority. FSSAI has the power to control the manufacturer of food, storage, distribution, sale and import for human consumption. FSSAI <\/em>assumes the status of the autonomous body works under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, contributing the health and safety standards for food industry. Later, FSSAI came out with a prohibitory advisory against the combination of unsafe foods and toys packing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The section 3(1) zz (xi) of Food Safety and Standards Act<\/a>, 2006 defines the non-quality food results injurious to health and it cause banning of that products. The label on the particular products highlight how much quality it is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safety Hazard \u2013 Plastic Toys usage within the food packet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Unsafe<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The new FSSAI <\/a>advisory discourages that the packaging of unsafe foods and toys in the same combo. The risk of contamination gets higher when the past 3 decades they combined both the foods and plastic toys. But more importantly kids and infants are taking these chocolates and gifts usually and it cause risk of choking and accidental ingestion. And likewise it became as a major safety hazard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FSSAI <\/strong>Advisory note state that the colour, shape and texture of the gift toys or anything should not resemble with the actual food products. If both the products are looks similar, it cause accidental swallowing and the consequent threat of choking. The thin and round shaped Tazos should not allowed within the food packets. If the retailer or the manufacturer <\/a>want to sell, then can sell it separately. We have to care more when we asking the retailor for free gifts. Because it is quite common for retail shop to skip giving complimentary items while billing a bulk of goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Have you ever bought food that was decayed, infected with worms?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If so, what are the necessary steps that you were carried to avoid such instants again? Time to time people have to deal with various food safety concerns. But only countable number of people were started to do something for such occurrences. Foreign countries are aware of the importance of food safety, but in India most of us are not caring that much. We Indians are aware of such issues but we are not giving that much values to the seriousness. Here in the second half I am going to share about such legal awareness. When the food products are contaminated they are reducing the nutritional value as well as resulting so many health hazards. That\u2019s why the government and food authority leading to generate certain guidelines regarding FSSAI registration<\/a>. Here we are going to discuss about consumer complaints against the contamination of food. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
