From GFSI's POV it relates to intent, eg 

 

A  collective  term  encompassing  the  deliberate  and  intentional  substitution,
addition, tampering or misrepresentation of food, food ingredients or food packaging, labelling,
product information or false or misleading statements made about a product for economic gain
that could impact consumer health
.” (GFSI Benchmarking Requirements, 2017)

 

 

Some other (GFSI) associated possibilities/categorisations -

Thanks you for your answer

Interesting if deliberate contamination was added, and if so, it would be food defense, specially Norovirus ....

 

best regards,
