Kerala’s ‘Eat Right App’ to help people eat at hygienic places

Kerala’s Department of Food Safety made a significant declaration to reaffirm its commitment to maintaining food safety on June 7, on the occasion of World Food Safety Day. Notably, Kerala has emerged as the top-ranking state for maintaining the highest standards in food safety, closely followed by Punjab and Tamil Nadu.

The Eat Right App is designed to be a beacon of food safety, guiding residents and visitors alike to places where they can dine with complete confidence. By installing the app, users gain access to a comprehensive list of bakeries and restaurants, each of which has been meticulously vetted for adherence to food safety standards.

The concept of involving the public in ensuring food safety is not uncommon. However, it is the first time any Indian State has taken an initiative of this kind, one that might be expanded across the country if it is found effective in Kerala.
