Chapter 20 in Supply Chain Risk, 2009, pp 331-344 from Springer

Abstract: The product quality of specific groceries can be viewed from at least three dimensions: product oriented quality (physical characteristics of the product), process oriented quality (process oriented characteristics of the product) and utilization oriented quality (subjective quality aspects of purchasers/consumers) (Grunert et al. 2002). Against the background of this multidimensionality, food safety in the European Community is defined in EU-Community law by the criteria “harmful to health” and “suitability for human consumption” (EC Art. 14).
