Panorama: Poison on Your Plate

on BBC One London

Britain is facing a food-poisoning crisis. The number of reported infections has soared, with up to 10 million people falling ill and an average of 200 people dying every year from contaminated food. And yet the Government has postponed the creation of a Food Standards Agency which Prime Minister Tony Blair promised at the last election was a "long overdue reform".
With food scientists and researchers claiming the crisis is preventable, tonight's programme examines why the food industry is still serving up so much food that can poison us.
