Make A Wise Food Choice

Talk Series on “Make A Wise Food Choice”

The Centre for Food Safety (CFS) will organise, in collaboration with food trade associations, food safety talks during the period from July to September 2013. The contents of the talk are designed to promote, to the general public and the food trade alike, the concept of making a wise food choice, sourcing food or food ingredients from hygienic and reliable shops, and choosing food according to one's health condition. Besides, we will take this opportunity to introduce ways to reduce sodium content in food. It is hoped that by raising awareness on the importance of food safety and healthy diet, everyone can enjoy food in a safe and healthy way.

The series of talks will focus on the two main topics listed below:

“Make A Wise Food Choice”
“Reducing Sodium Content in Food ”

Food Trade Association co-organising the talks:
