Contamination of food is possible through infestations such as rats or mice etc., foreign matter, chemicals such as oils or cleaning solutions and Micro-organisms like yeast, bacteria and fungi.
The contamination of food can happen during production, processing, packaging, warehousing, distribution or quite simply at home. Micro-organisms are too small to be seen by the naked eye which identifies them as the hidden enemy!
