    Food safety is a fundamental element of food security. To provide safe foods, food safety has to be connected to all the other elements that touch it and surround it. In our ever-changing world, these elements may remain scattered, neglected or unclear. This document provides a layman’s introduction to many food safety topics that are currently observed in the area, providing a list of possible documentation to rely on and asking to the readers some questions that cannot have one unique answer, but that rather invite for reflection on what can be done at the national level. This guide also serves as an index to the entire food safety toolkit, a collection of written materials on the less mainstream topics of food safety, but on which the readers are invited to read more detail and reflect. The contents are reported in the form of a small and unconventional handbook that aims at being referred to regularly by, and within easy of access of, those who interact daily with food safety.
