Complaints

Discovering a foreign object in food or other problems with food can be a very unpleasant experience.  However, not all pose a serious health risk. Here are some common food complaints together with a short explanation and suggestions for the best course of action.

The information provided in the common food complaints document is intended as a self-help guide for residents and local businesses to help you to solve common issues that occur routinely in items of food. The aim of this guide is save time so that our food safety officers can concentrate on more serious issues that pose a potential risk to public health.
