Clean Food Propaganda.
The provision of clean food for the public depends in varying degree
upon the manufacturer, the vendor, the purchaser and the Public Health
Department. Whilst it would be unwise to assume that the agencies
noted are given in direct order of priority, it must again be stated that
education rather than legislation is going to be the ultimate dictator of
our food hygiene standards. By the time food comes into our local
shops it has often got without the immediate sphere of the manufacturer
and where it is pre-packed the chances of subsequent complaint are
necessarily of a minimal order. Where, however, the food is not prepacked
or is prepared locally, an increasingly heavy responsibility is
thrust upon everyone concerned. One of the most important contributions
towards a high standard of food hygiene is the routine day-today
visit carried out by my Sanitary Inspectors ; but however interested
and efficient they may be there is still an essential gap which can only
be filled by the food trade operatives and the public. Public education
will not be complete until individuals are not only aware of what the
whole question of food hygiene is about but also have become sufficiently
convinced of their case to cast aside the diffidence in making complaints
to the shopkeeper or cafe proprietor which unfortunately reflects the
present-day position so much.
No one has greater influence than a legitimately dissatisfied purchaser.
