Abstract
Either because of high demand or seasonality in supply, various food products and/or drinks can be adulterated in diverse situations. According to different authors like El-loly et al. (2013) and Asrat and Yilma (2014), there are intentional/deliberately/knowingly and unintentional/unknowingly/incidental adulterations. So it is very important to see them separately.
