However, a new study from one of the world's most respected safety/science companies (Underwriters Laboratory or UL) reports that food producers and consumers have very differing opinions regarding the overall safety of the global food supply. While a majority of consumers think food manufacturers "can do a better job in regards to food safety", only 2 percent of food manufacturers think that their company is "behind the curve regarding the safety of their products."
