It is essential that each sector of the food chain follow correct food handling procedures in order to

a. meet nutrient guidelines.
b. have a safe food supply.
c. have tasty food products.
d. maintain an inexpensive food supply.


B
Food can become unsafe if it is mishandled at any point in the food chain between the farm and the plate; therefore correct food handling procedures protect the safety of the food supply. Food handling procedures may affect the nutrient content and taste of foods to some extent, but these effects are much less significant. Correct food handling procedures are not necessarily linked to cost of food production.
