Abstract

Ethnic foods are becoming popular worldwide. Nevertheless, foodborne outbreaks and food recalls due to the contamination of these foods with pathogenic agents, toxins, undeclared allergens and hazardous chemical compounds are increasing in recent years together with their growing popularity. In this context, ad hoc prevention and control strategies are needed, to assess and face the emerging microbiological and toxicological risks associated with the consumption of ethnic foods.
