Abstract:In recent years, frequent food safety incidents in our country seriously endangered people's life and health. Therefore, perfecting the relevant legal system of food and improving the relevant laws and regulations become the urgent matter. The main problems existing in the China's food recall system are the conflicts of superior and inferior laws and regulations or new and old laws and regulations, the narrow food recall range, unclear supervision departments, insufficient law enforcement, the imperfect enterprise credit system and enterprise credit system, and the low violation cost. In view of the above problems, some suggestions about how to improve the current food recall system were given in this paper. The legal system of food recall should be perfected and the scope of food recall subjects should be enlarged. Moreover, the legal system of food enterprise credit can be established and perfected and the violation cost of food recall can be improved.
