In the lead up to World Food Safety Day on 7 June 2026, and during Australian Food Science and Technology Week 1 to 7 June 2026, the Food Safety Information Council has released its latest report card on Aussie consumers’ food safety behaviour. The council’s CEO, Lydia Buchtmann, said that each year we conduct consumer research to see how Aussies are tracking with their food safety behaviour and we’ve just released our latest Food Safety Report Card and it still doesn’t look good.
