摘要:
The primary objective of food regulations is to protect the consumers by prohibiting the use of harmful ingredients in foods. Despite the fact that there are various bodies regulating production and sale of food products, traces of substandard products were found in the marketplace. This probably suggests poor quality management on the part of some of the inspected food industries and inefficiency in the enforcement of the regulations. It was also observed that the level of awareness of these regulations on the part of the consumers was very low and depended on age, income, and sex. Policy measures for improving both the enforcement of these regulations and the level of awareness for the consumers are recommended.
