Since the Chinese Food Safety Law was enacted in 2009, great effort has been made by the government in improving the regulation of food additives. However, fearing about the safety of the food additives is still haunting Chinese consumers, which in some ways indicates the lack of “risk communication”. The most important function and aim of risk communication is to reduce the asymmetry of information between consumers and relevant parties, thereby protecting consumers' right to know.

Government and enterprises’ lacking of risk communication as well as the defect of legislation are the main problems.
