The imported product consists of ""agricultural products: soybeans, corn and wheat"", “seafood products: fish, crustaceans and mollusks"", "" poultry and meat"", ""wood and related products"", ""fresh and frozen fruits"" and ""coffee"", which altogether account for 48.0% of people’s consumed products. This shows a close relationship between imported food and people’s diet; therefore, indicating the importance and necessity of proper food management for imported foods. Based on the collection of relevant import and export data, this study will help us in (1) understanding the major importing countries and the products being imported. Thereby, (2) collecting international and domestic border inspection data for representative health concerning products. Furthermore, (3) developing a risk assessment model based on food ingestion data to determine health impact of imported food toward different age groups (i.e., children, adolescents, adults, elderly, and women of childbearing age) Lastly, (4) conducting questionnaire surveys with NGOs and consumer groups to collect summarized opinions of both parties, which is beneficial for future risk communication and food safety education of the public."風險分析食品安全進口食品
