History
Survival is a natural attitude of living creatures

HAZARDS
Individuals
Drives to protect from Hazards:For individual survivalProtection from perceived hazardsEconomic gainsCommunity survival and thereby individual survival

Hazards
Community interestProtection of a group of people after they formed a community and organized themselves from:–Starvation–Wild animals–Neighbours

Hazards
Community interest–Cities organized food quality–Baker street, butcher street, butter street, corn market–Gold coins (intrinsic value)–Standardisation of measurements (weight, length)–And close control over most vulnerable food: ….
MEAT

History 1300
Development of enforcement In ancient times sale of meat was
controlled by the local government or religious rules.
In The Netherlands around 1300 it was allowed to slaughter animals in the cities by everyone everywhere.
By the end of that century slaughtering was left to the butchers
Increasing economy demanded market control and as a result quality standards.
The local governments felt responsible
for safe meat.

Considerations. (selection from GFL)
High level of health protection– Free movement of safe and wholesome food– Same safety requirements in Europe for free movement– Water is excluded from these regulations as it is already in other
ones– Feed will be included – Food production chain; from feed up to the sale and supply to the
consumer
16
Cons Protection: Food Ctnd
