Food Packaging System, Used Food Processing Machinery for Food Process Engineer and Food Processing Software.

Well a while back a sarcastic Channel 4 continuity announcer did introduce a Beavis and Butthead episode with the words "and now for a documentary programme about modern American youth". Seems she was right.

How could they proved they were doing it for 8 months ? If there was someone responsible enuf to testify they were doing it, shouldn't they have told someone ?

Quite frankly, this kind of behaviour goes on in a lot of food processing environments. It normally goes undetected. There's a saying that goes along the lines of, 'If you saw the kitchen you'd never eat here', regarding restaurants.

Years ago, I worked in the catering/restaurant industry. It's a pretty good rule of thumb that if you want to know the condition the kitchen is kept in, check the bathrooms, they'll be in about the same condition.

There was a nasty food poisoning episode in the House of Lords with mayonnaise. They just used to top up the sauce boat from time to time, in what the peer who told me about this was a sort of solera system. Surprise surprise the goo at the bottom got a bit iffy and... Almost as bad as BA poisoning the Saudi Foreign Minister (and Royal family member) with dodgy prawn mayonnaise. He was so ill that he had to have surgery. If the guy responsible from BA ever visits Riyhad so will he!

A lot of my work is in the Food Industry ( Large scale) And im happy to report, that in the past few years 90% of my customers are doing the right thing. I used to see Butchers coating old meat in preservatives to get rid of that "off " smell then mince it all up. other food manufactures would throw in old fruit with new fruit when making certain products ect

I could go on and on , but don't want to put people of there food, lets just say that if this does happen now , its a very very rare occurrence , especially with larger companies that hold a quality assurance ticket ( ASO) Ive known a few companies that were denied a ticket ( food Industry) for having cigarette buts on the floor outside! ( no way near preparation area ).
