American consumers deserve to trust the safety of the food they
purchase for themselves and their families. While we enjoy one of
the safest food supplies in the world, it requires constant
monitoring. We need to be able to rapidly identify and address
risks to our food supply as a result of new disease agents, new
food technologies, changes in U.S. demographic and dietary
patterns, and an abundance of food imports resulting from an
increasingly globalised food supply. The federal government has
taken important steps to protect an increasingly complex food
supply. In March 2009, President Obama created the Food Safety
Working Group (FSWG), a central coordinating mechanism for the
federal government's food safety activities that is led by the
Department of Health and Human Services and the USDA. This book
provides an overview of the progress and assessments of the Federal
Food Safety Working Group with a focus on results oriented goals
and performance measures for food safety oversight.
