NUTRITIONAL SCIENCE AND FOOD POLITICS
NATALITA MARIA SPERDEA, MADALINA GIORGIANA MANGRA, VALENTINA DOCEA, CONSTANTIN COJOCARUABSTRACT. Chadwick contends that overall diet gets short shrift in contemporary food safety legislation. Bagchi et al. observe that obesity has rapidly grown into a global epidemic. Frewer and Fischer argue that consumer perceptions associated with the introduction of novel food technologies are characterised by a range of specific perceptions. Paarlberg states that the best way to judge the magnitude of the crisis is to measure actual hunger. (pp. 273–278)
