2022 Eurobarometer on Food Safety in the EU (EFSA)

30 Sept 2022

This Special Eurobarometer, commissioned by EFSA, examines Europeans’ perceptions of and attitudes towards food safety and provides insights in terms of:

• Europeans’ interest in food safety-related topics and factors affecting food-related decisions;
• Awareness of and main concerns about food safety topics, as well as attitudes towards healthy diets and food-related risks;
• Main information channels on food-related risks;
• Levels of trust in different actors from farm to fork;
• Awareness of different aspects of the EU food safety system;
• Behaviour in the area of food safety, using an example of a foodborne disease outbreak.

This survey builds upon previous Special Eurobarometer surveys conducted in 2010 and 2019. In the 2022 Eurobarometer Report, comparisons with the results of the 2019 survey are reported when relevant.
