The Food Safety Authority celebrated the recent European Consumer Rights Day by issuing a leaflet called "Vote With Your Feet!", aimed at raising awareness of unfit food and poor hygiene. The Authority believes that the earlier the consumer is made aware the better for all, and for this reason involves schools whenever and however possible. At the launch of "Vote With Your Feet!" Belvedere College was represented by a group of Transition Year students and Colaiste Mhuire Gaelscoil was there in enthusiastic force. Everyone has "a right to safe food", the leaflet stresses, and it gives details of where and to whom protest should be made. For more information contact the safe food helpline on 1850 404567.
