Kryterium kulturowe w regulacjach bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego Polski

One of the aspects of food security is the cultural adequacy of food. This means that food security cannot be sufficiently ensured when this factor is ignored. Unfortunately, no approach has been developed, either in the regulations or on conceptual grounds, which would help classify food products for the needs of food security and account for the aforementioned cultural aspect. However, not every product is equally significant for this policy and some may not be important at all. Therefore, the paper proposes that product classification criteria be established for food security, including in particular the cultural criterion. In addition, examples of its adoption (or omission) in the current regulations are presented.
