Experts emphasize the importance of citizens reacting immediately when discovering products that are unfit for consumption or have expired on sale.
Medianews.az reports that a customer who encounters such a situation should primarily not purchase the product or present it at the checkout. If the product has already been purchased, they should immediately apply to the store management to return or exchange it.
Consumers should know their rights and report problematic products to the relevant supervisory authorities, especially the Food Safety Agency, as soon as they see them. This is considered important both for protecting the health of other buyers and for preventing illegal cases.
At the same time, it is emphasized that the label on the product, as well as the production and expiration dates, should be carefully checked. Not purchasing suspicious products is one of the main steps in preventing food poisoning.
The active stance of consumers significantly contributes to strengthening control in markets and ensuring the circulation of safe food.
