Food Inspector is one of the most important jobs that concerneds each and every single person in India. Food Inspector plays very important role by visiting places where food items are stored to check whether such places meet the santiation standards set by the central and state government.

Food inspector can also obtain the sample of food item, whichever it may be and send it to labs for further inspection. The general idea behind sending food items to lab is to check out if the food item is using any banned substance. This practice is often done for the packed food items, junk food, soft drinks etc.
