purchased food from a large food outlet and found that it was unfit to eat when I got home,it is not the first time it has happened.

I would like to report them but dont no who to.I did think enviromental health but i am not sure.

Answer 1

You should have taken the food back to the store and asked to speak to the manager.  But you are correct environmental health would be the guys to contact.  My son works in a big supermarket and after chatting to him I will be no longer purchasing from the store in Question.

Answer 2

Contact your nearest Environmental Health office ( you should find this through your local council) You could also report it to Trading Standards!

Answer 3

You are correct enviromental health. But try and have some evidence as they will need it.

Answer 4

Report to the Dept. of Health

Answer 5

Pu the food in an airtight container and keep the receipt and take to the environmental health dept of your local council who should be the ones to take any legal action.

Answer 6

If you are UK based

your local enviromental health department

( If possible keep a sample of the suspect food )

your local council will have their phone number

and may be able to put your call through

good luck

Answer 7

Yes contact enviromental health they will then investigate. If you have the offending item that will be good

Answer 8

I would report them to the city first, they will probably do something about, like a health inspector and everything if not that then ask them who you can contact about it.

Answer 9

Yes, this will prevent them from selling old/nasty/unconsumable items and prevent people from getting sick.

Answer 10

Local town hall, they usually have good departments to sort these things out.
