 We have to understand the consumer side of the complex issue of sustainability. It covers many topics, such as the way of life, and how consumer attitudes and behaviors reflected in the consumption patterns influence economic, and environmental decisions. Many consumers do not know which products or companies are truly sustainable, so they can't decide based on authentic information. Responsible purchasing should be habitual; consumers should be willing to pay a premium for sustainable goods despite the economic downturn.  Due to the global trend in environmental awareness, paired with heightened consumer consciousness, food and feed companies are increasingly facing new expectations. The global food industry can be broken into three main sectors: agriculture, food processing, and food retail and foodservice. Each sector has its own challenges but each of them has to be sustainable. The food train as such, represents the many stations of the food chain.  Food safety systems should be founded on science-based principles. Entrepreneurs, policy makers and representatives of science and education have to cooperate to enhance public health outcomes, increase food safety education, training, and to build capacity to protect animal health, food safety, public health and the environment.  Policy making, carrying out official controls and share information with consumers are official tasks of the national governments and partly of the European Commission. Recent trends in global food and feed production, processing, distribution, preparation and consumption are creating challenges for national systems to ensure food safety and adequate nutrition.
