Our Food 2023: An annual review of food standards across the UK

Summary

This third annual review of food standards in the UK analyses a range of data to assess whether food standards improved, declined or were maintained during 2023. In doing so, we review evidence on food safety as well as authenticity and wider consumer concerns in relation to food.

Written in partnership by Food Standards Scotland and the Food Standards Agency, evidence was gathered from a variety of sources including local authorities, government departments and the organisations’ own sampling and surveillance programmes.
