The National Food Consumption Survey (FCS) 2022-2023 examined not only what people living in Belgium eat but also how they handle food at home. A dedicated food safety module collected information on everyday practices, including hygiene, cooking, storage, and awareness of expiration dates. Adults aged 18 years and older answered for themselves, while parents or guardians answered on behalf of children aged 3 to 9 years. This module makes it possible to map current habits and compare some of them with the previous survey conducted in 2014-2015.
