Abstract: Food fraud, or food crime, is a wide-ranging subject that “can mean many things”, ​according to the Norwegian Institute of Food, Fisheries and Aquaculture Research (Nofima).A European initiative led by senior scientist Petter Olsen at Nofima has responded to the need for clear definitions across the bloc: “How does one define ‘food fraud’ and sub-terms such as ‘mislabelling’ or ‘adulteration’? ” ​asked Olsen when we caught up last week. Currently, a number of different definitions exist for food fraud.
