Some foods when not handled correctly can cause disruptions and diseases to the human being, for example, the pork that can contain transmissible parasites by the consumption of the meat.

In this context, the Food and Drug Administration provides the service to society by establishing sanitary guidelines for the production and handling of meat from the environment in which the animal lives until slaughter and distribution. In addition, the agency has a rigid oversight role throughout the production chain.

This type of service serves as a signal to society that that particular food can be consumed by citizens without great risks to human health. The same control is done with several other types of food and medicines.
