A new report b y Coral Beach in Jan 29, 2022, edition of Food safety news, confirms a Illnesses continuing addition to the series of illnesses traceable the consumption of Salmonella enteritidis in frozen corn in Canada . Before this , many RECALLS have been done on suspicion. Please read on
The Public Health Agency continuing fCanada (PHAC) reports that there are now 110 people from five provinces who have been confirmed as outbreak patients. As of Dec. 21 there were 84 confirmed patients.
“Many of the individuals who became sick reported eating a variety of raw and cooked produce items before their illness. Initially, investigators identified that fresh avocados were reported by many cases before they became ill; however, more information was needed to confirm the source of the outbreak,” according to the PHAC outbreak update.
“As part of the food safety investigation, the CFIA collected different food items from restaurants where ill people dined. Testing found the outbreak strain of Salmonella in an unopened package of Alasko brand frozen whole kernel corn. Traceback findings identified Alasko as the common brand of frozen corn consumed at various foodservice establishments by individuals who became sick. Based on the investigation findings to date, the outbreak is linked to Alasko brand frozen whole kernel corn.”
Outbreak patients have been identified in five provinces: British Columbia with 42, Alberta with 49, Saskatchewan with 4, Manitoba with 13, and Ontario with 2. The illnesses reported in Ontario are related to travel to Alberta and British Columbia, according to the public health agency.
Patients documented so far became sick between early September 2021 and late December 2021. Four individuals have been hospitalized. No deaths have been reported. Individuals who became ill are between 1 and 89 years of age. The majority of cases, 64 percent, are female.
It can take several weeks for patients to be added to the outbreak list after they become ill because of the time it takes to confirm their infections and report them to provincial and federal authorities.
“The outbreak appears to be ongoing, as recent illnesses continue to be reported,” according to the outbreak update.
“Do not eat, use, sell, or serve any of the recalled corn or products made with the recalled corn. This advice applies to individuals, as well as retailers, distributors, manufacturers and foodservice establishments such as hotels, restaurants, cafeterias, hospitals and long-term care homes, across Canada.”
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued food recalls in relation to the outbreak. The recalled products were distributed in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Quebec, and may have been distributed in other provinces and territories.
The recall of Alasko brand frozen whole kernel corn has led to secondary recalls, including one by Fraser Valley Meats, one by Osaka and T&T Supermarkets, one by Save on Foods, one by Nourishment Meals, and one by King Ranch.
The secondary recalls involve products that used Alasko brand frozen corn as an ingredient. The CFIA is continuing its food safety investigation, which may lead to the recall of other products. If other products are recalled, the CFIA will notify the public through updated food recall warnings.

LISTERIA ON CHICKEN INVITES PUBLIC HEALTH ALERT FROM USDA
USDA issues public health alert for R-T-E chicken for Listeria contamination
The products bear establishment number “EST. P47170” inside the USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to three local markets in Atlanta,
The contamination was discovered when the company notified FSIS that product sampling reported positive Listeria monocytogenes results.
There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an illness should contact a health care provider.
Consumption of food contaminated with L. monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, a serious infection that primarily affects older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women and their newborns. Less commonly, persons outside these risk groups are affected.
About Listeria infections
Food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes may not look or smell spoiled but can still cause serious and sometimes life-threatening infections. Anyone who has eaten any recalled product and developed symptoms of Listeria infection should seek medical treatment and tell their doctors about the possible Listeria exposure.
Also, anyone who has eaten any of the recalled products should monitor themselves for the food poisoning symptoms during the coming weeks because it can take up to 70 days after exposure to Listeria for symptoms of listeriosis to develop.
Symptoms of Listeria infection can include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches, severe headache, and neck stiffness. Specific laboratory tests are required to diagnose Listeria infections, which can mimic other illnesses.
Pregnant women, the elderly, young children, and people such as cancer patients who have weakened immune systems are particularly at risk of serious illnesses, life-threatening infections, and other complications. Although infected pregnant women may experience only mild, flu-like symptoms, their infections can lead to premature delivery, infection of the newborn, or even stillbirth.

AFRICA, THROUGH FARA, REMEMBERS FORGOTTEN FOODS
The Forum for Agricultural Research in Africa , FARA, has ignited a renewed interest in some forgotten and less utilized foods in African countries. The initiative started in 2021 continues in 2022, with a call to cluster invited participated in order to have their expertise properly deployed
A release signed by the contact person, on behalf of Prof Wole Adetunbi, Senior Technical Cluster Leader, stated the full intention of the step…and more. Please read on
Dear Community Members,
Following the discussion on the subject “2022 Opening Thoughts: Africa CoP on Forgotten Foods”, which commenced on the 18th of January, 2022 with an initial outline on how we will be running this CoP, I would like to follow up on some of the issues which were outlined in the mail Prof. Wole Fatunbi sent.
1. In other to have a smooth running of this African Community on Forgotten Foods, there is the need to cluster all community members into areas of specialization, interest as well as competence.
2. This would help in the identifications of members who would pick up issues related to their areas of specialization.
3. This will help reduce or eliminate the duplications of efforts on the issues of forgotten foods at the national, regional, and continental levels.
4. The clustering will also provide an opportunity for community members with the same area of specialization to network on the emerging issues around their specializations as well as provide support to cross-cutting issues in the continent.
5. Kindly find the link to the form and provide your details to help FARA in the clustering process here: https://forms.gle/
FARA looks forward to a fruitful year and continuous partnership in the development of African agriculture, especially in the reintegration of the forgotten food commodities and species into our food system.
Kind regards
For:
Prof. Wole Fatunbi (Ph.D.)
Senior Technical Cluster Leader/Innovation Systems Specialist

Global Forum on Food Security and Nutrition • FSN Forum
Consultation for the development of the CFS Voluntary Guidelines on Gender Equality and Women’s and Girls’ Empowerment in the Context of Food Security and Nutrition
We are happy to inform you that the CFS Secretariat has decided to extend the deadline of the Consultation for the development of the CFS Voluntary Guidelines on Gender Equality and Women’s and Girls’ Empowerment in the Context of Food Security and Nutrition until 30 November 2021.
Below you will find the short summaries of the latest contributions received. We invite you to read these comments in full on the consultation page, where participants are posting very concrete feedback on how the Guidelines could be strengthened.
Please refer to the web page to read the introduction to the online consultation in English, Español, Français, Русский, 中文 or العربية. Comments are welcome in any of these six languages.
If you have any questions, please contact us at fsn-moderator@fao.org. We look forward to receiving your precious input!

As promised, here I am to report some of the outputs of the regional consultation for Asia and the Pacific.
We are very satisfied with the active participation during the regional consultation for Asia and the Pacific and we really appreciated the presence of the following keynote speakers: the CFS Chairperson, Mr. Gabriel Ferrero de Loma-Osorio; H.E Lenny N. Rosalin, Deputy Minister for Gender Equality, Ministry of Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection of Indonesia, and Chair of the ASEAN Committee on Women (ACW); Dr. Lok Nath Paudel, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development of Nepal; and Mr. John Aylieff, Regional Director, World Food Programme (WFP), Asia and the Pacific.
As in previous consultations, the second plenary discussion on Day 2, intended to discuss Part 3 of the Zero Draft, started with the three themes/sections identified by participants as priority at the time of registration: Section 3.1 Women’s participation, voice and leadership in policy and decision-making at all levels; Section 3.3 Access to education, capacity building, training, knowledge and information services; and Section 3.4 Women’s economic empowerment in the context of sustainable food systems.
I mention here only some of the many comments received to possibly further stimulate the discussion on the FSN Forum, while I invite you to read the full report on our webpage to learn more.
There was a caution that while promoting women’s economic empowerment is very positive, this should not be at the expense of instrumentalizing women by placing the sole responsibility for food security on their shoulders. A truly transformative approach needs to address systemic inequalities and ensure that women’s triple burden of work is not compounded. What in your experience would help to enable this transformative approach? And who should lead it?
Furthermore, there were calls to include the issue of male out-migration in the draft, and to document and respond to its impacts on the women who are left behind: in particular, we need to understand the challenges and needs of female-headed households. What policies and actions could be of help in addressing them?
On intersectionality and multi-dimensional approaches, there were calls to move beyond a gender binary approach and to reflect the specific needs of LGBTI people and others facing discrimination. These issues were raised several times during the regional consultations. However, there were some debates on this among the participants and a call to use only internationally agreed terms. I appreciated a useful clarification from a participant that we need to ensure non-discrimination to ensure no-one is left behind on the grounds of race, gender identity, religion and other differences.
Finally, I have very good news. At the request of some participants, we have been able to extend the deadline for this e-consultation to November 30th.
So, I warmly invite you to post your comments, if not already done, or in the hope that my questions have stimulated further reflection.
Thank you and see you soon!

Rob posts feedback from World Vision Australia, which stresses that the policy areas for consideration lack articulation and that Part 4 on implementation and monitoring of the use and application of the Guidelines could include more practical guidance. Furthermore, the contribution discusses some other points for consideration. For instance, a more thorough exploration of how women are especially vulnerable to the effects of climate change, and the gender-specific challenges of climate change adaptation, would better integrate these Voluntary Guidelines with COP26, SDGs and NDCs. Last, urban-rural disparity, disability inclusion and gender diversity could be better explored throughout the Guidelines.

Suani highlights the issue of energy poverty, pointing out that a lack of access to energy for cooking mainly affects the health of women and children. Policies are needed that improve access to energy and incentivize more efficient and sustainable energy sources. In this context, taking an intersectional approach is very important, as energy poverty affects in particular black women and traditional and low-income populations, both in rural areas and on the outskirts of large urban centers.

CONTAMINATED FOOD LEADS TO 400,000 DEATHS EACH YEAR !!!!!
More than 400,000 people worldwide die from consuming contaminated food , according to Lloyd Register Foundation, a UK-based organization. Please read on
Foresight review of food safety.
The cost of unsafe food is high. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) estimates that foodborne illnesses cost the United States (US) at least $15.6 billion annually in lost productivity and medical care. There are environmental and social costs to food production too. The global food production system is one of the biggest contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. People today must consider alternative energy and food sources to limit the depletion of natural resources tomorrow.
We know we must take action on food safety, but many challenges stand in our way. Complex supply chains open up risks to food fraud, and a lack of traceability frustrates consumers’ abilities to understand the authenticity of what they are buying. Keeping food safe can harm the environment: plastic packaging is now an urgent global concern and food cold chains while an important part of food safety, have a negative impact on energy consumption and sustainability. At a time when food safety needs a funding boost, global research and innovation investment in food is low relative to other industries.
The fast-growing demand for food puts an enormous strain on the food production system and natural resources. If the current global population were to consume the same amount per head of meat as Europe, five planets covered with grazing land – ocean included – would be needed. The future food safety system must be sustainable and take into account this growing demand. At the same time, it must also take into account food loss and waste and address the lack of efficiency. Underlying these challenges is a need for education and training about food safety. From consumers, to companies, to governments, people need more evidence-based information in order to make informed decisions about the food they eat.
But solutions are at hand. Technology can play an important part in addressing these challenges. In the life sciences, new ways of producing proteins – lab meat, insects, seafood – can help improve not only traceability but also sustainability; aquaculture or aquafarming is the fastest-growing animal food-producing sector in the world. Urban farming and 3D-printed food help in the production of local, traceable food. New techniques in DNA verification and next-generation sequencing are opening up possibilities for genetically modifying food for greater safety. The microbiome – a community of beneficial microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi and viruses that inhabit environments including the human body – could one day become our frontline in food safety. And stable isotope technology gives us a way to ‘fingerprint’ food and help prevent fraud.
Data science and life science are about to converge to shape a new model for food safety. Big data and predictive analytics can aggregate and analyse immense volumes of information through complex algorithms to anticipate risks or critical events in the food supply chain before they happen. The internet of things will help improve the efficiency and productivity of factories and improve traceability. Agricultural drones and satellites can help identify and warn against crop pests. Blockchain – a technology that combines the openness of the internet with the security of cryptography to give a faster, safer way to verify information and establish trust – promises to revolutionise traceability in the food supply chain. It can help to tackle food fraud and deliver the information that consumers need about the food they consume.
Social evolutions are also changing the face of food safety. A new generation of consumers is driving a food revolution. These trend setters have a new set of values: they want food that is healthy but, importantly, they also want food that is sustainable and free from animal abuse, genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and modern slavery.
Following the Wikipedia and OpenStreetMap (the free wiki world map) examples, open food databases driven by citizens are gaining increasing momentum and are a big issue for food brands. Vegan, vegetarian and organic consumption are growing fast and now represent more of an ideology or lifestyle than just a diet.
The Foresight review recommends Lloyd’s Register Foundation focuses investment in three core areas:

ADULTERATION IN HONEY BRANDS, A SOURCE OF WORRY TO FOOD SAFETY
In the Nigerian market, honey is retailed as a substitute for sugar which health enthusiasts confirm to be dangerous to the body. Honey is already being used as a preservative. However recent developments that associated massive adulteration with honey, heightens food safety concerns. Just in the year 2020, a report in India, confirmed the suspected a situation capable of throwing the poor honey consuming masses into palpable fear. Please read on
Top Indian honey brands fail adulteration test: CSE
Honey samples from leading brands such as Dabur, Patanjali, Baidyanath, Zandu, Hitkari and Apis Himalaya, all failed the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) laboratory tests currently being used globally to check for modified sugar syrups, the CSE said.
For the study, CSE food researchers selected 13 top and smaller brands of processed and raw honey being sold in India. Samples of these brands were first tested at the Centre for Analysis and Learning in Livestock and Food (CALF) at the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) in Gujarat.
Almost all the top brands (except Apis Himalaya) passed the tests of purity, while a few smaller brands failed the tests to detect C4 sugar – call it basic adulteration using cane sugar.
But when the same brands were tested using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), almost all big and small brands failed. Out of the 13 brands tested, only three passed the NMR test, which was conducted by a specialised laboratory in Germany.
“It is a food fraud more nefarious and more sophisticated than what we found in our 2003 and 2006 investigations into soft drinks; more damaging to our health than perhaps anything that we have found till now – keeping in mind the fact that we are still fighting against a killer Covid-19 pandemic with our backs to the wall,” said CSE Director General Sunita Narain. “This overuse of sugar in our diet will make it worse,” she added.
The samples were purchased during August-November 2020 from retail stores in Delhi and major online platforms.
More importantly, the study revealed that Indian standards for honey purity cannot detect the adulteration. This is because Chinese companies have designed sugar syrups to bypass these standards, the CSE said.
