"Fake foods are invading our supermarkets, as foods we love are substituted or
adulterated with lower value or unethical goods.
Food fraud threatens human health but is also bad news for industry and
sustainable food production. Seafood is one of most traded food products in the
world and reliant on convoluted supply chains that leave the the door wide open
for seafood fraud.
Our new study, published in the journal
Fish and Fisheries, showcases a new
approach for determining the provenance or “origin” of many seafood species.
By identifying provenance, we can detect fraud and empower authorities and
businesses to stop it. This makes it more likely that the food you buy is, in
fact, the food you truly want to eat."
