Need help with a reasearch paper about food safety

I need ideas on my research paper about food safety?

Greetings!

Food safety is a topic that many people just didn't think about too much until recently. As a result of a number of illnesses due to tainted food in the past year or two, this subject has moved to the front of many consumers' minds. There a several ways you could approach the subject. One that would be fairly easy to find sources on would be those highly public recalls. One was, if memory serves, due to the presence of e. coli in packaged spinach. For a while, it was impossible to even find fresh spinach in grocery stores. Many people became ill, and there were even a few deaths. Last year, it was Peter Pan peanut butter, which was recalled after many people became ill from salmonella poisoning. The factory where it was made had to be re-vamped and Peter Pan only became available again this August (finally!) Another food safety issue is food irradiation. Although it is designed to make food safe from bacteria, some people worry about long-term health effects. Then, there are "designer" foods which are engineered through mutations; many people worry about whether those are safe, too, though the companies which make them are adamant that they are.

So, as you can see, finding ideas isn't hard--it's deciding on one that will be the challenge!

You might want to start with a statistic [which you'll have to find], like, "Last year, x number of people became ill from food poisoning and as many as x number died. In order to protect their health, consumers must follow appropriate food safety guidelines regarding food storage and pay close attention to food expiration dates. Only by understanding and following the proper procedures can people avoid food poisoning."

I did a quick internet search with "food safety expiration date" as the search terms and a plethora of articles popped up. Give that a try and see if it helps!
