Abstract
Green foods are grown and harvested in the absence of any form of environmental pollution or harmful conditions. However, some farmers use the premise of this concept to engage in food fraud, food terrorism, food injustice, and many other vices. The concept of green foods is herein recounted together with its interdependence and relationship to health and sustainability. The processes, policies, and global trends of green foods are discussed, alongside the benefits and challenges associated therewith.
