Horse-meat mislabeled as beef. Honey diluted with cheap sugar syrups. Counterfeit extra-virgin olive oil. Food crime has become a multi-billion dollar industry, impacting everything from the most affordable to the most expensive ingredients. Approximately 10% of our consumed food is believed to be adulterated. “What we know for sure is that food fraud is growing exponentially and it’s more and more worrying,” states one consumer advocate.
Criminal syndicates have infiltrated the global food supply chain, eroding consumer trust in labels and the contents of their plates. In Italy, the mafia controls entire sectors of the food industry, while worldwide, well-organized criminal networks collaborate to exploit intricate supply chains. Scams vary from intentionally mislabeling inferior products as premium items to substituting one foodstuff for something entirely different. The profits are staggering. But what risks does this pose to consumers? How can we detect food fraud? And what measures can be taken to halt it?
In this investigation, we shadow the food fraud brigades, shedding light on the limited knowledge we have about what we’re consuming. From the olive groves of Italy to the fish markets of France and the abattoirs of Poland, this film takes you on a culinary journey of a distinct kind. It’s a global exploration into the realm of counterfeit food, revealing the hidden complexities of this industry.

Horse meat is very tasty and lean, and legal inmost of Europe, I rateit the best beef I ever ate. At 52.00 thefrench lady said the stores should do testing of products… they are a consumer.. our government should be doing testing..

Just humans poisoning humans for a dollar. Nothing new there then.
Restaurants meat are not guaranteed, grocery products are not guaranteed, supplements industry are not guaranteed
Vegetables and fruits could be only source that okay🥸
Milk products are better than oils and meat products, because milk products somehow inexpensive and easy to prepare, and milk brands are way famous and common by oils are not really and meat are not famous
Cheese 🧀🤫👌
Mostly canned tuna from Persian or Thailand, nothing Europe, and Europe honey is not recommended and there is many Asian and Arab natural honey, Russia honey but not Europe
European products are mostly not guaranteed in the market🤡

Criminality in big buisness is standard practice, getting caught is what's unusual.
i dont buy ready meals anyway.we have to go on old ways go market look then buy.
In all reality, is there a difference in eating horse meat compared to cow meat ? What’s the problem ?
Interesting how the West is becoming the same as China was a couple of decades ago, while Chinese food inductry became one of the most transparent in the world. You can literally check every single deail about a product, by scanning the QR code. This is one of the reasons I want my kids to learn Mandarin and not German of French. The future is already here, they must be ready.
So what brand is good olive oil pls?
I was hungry before I watched this😢
Romans 3:12(Living Bible)
Every one has turned away; all have gone wrong. No one anywhere has kept on doing what is right; not one.
It seems to me it would be simple for someone to make a simple consumer testing device. Nothing fancy, just something a consumer could use to test once they get the product home. We need more whistleblowers !!!
German chancellors do not prioritize fine taste.
Thank you best documentary for these documents ❤, they are realy eye opening , i thought EU are the top in controlling food but, it turned out that is not the case , by the way the narrater has clear beautiful sound 👍
Those found responsible need to be held accountable (sent to prison and for a very long time too.)
I eat soup and only soup
But horse meat is better quality of cow meat? In Canada horse meat is more expensive to buy. It’s weird
That’s why be a vegetarian instead of
