Summary/Abstract: Sometimes it may be unclear whether a particular product is a food (foodstuff) under food legislation or whether it falls under other sectorial legislation. In the case of these „borderline products”, the decision on a product’s classification must be taken on a case-by-case basis. In the article there is an analysis of classification issues as well as it attempted to answer the question of „what shall we do with borderline products?”. The author considers most of all judgments of the Court of Justice and polish courts in the context of European Union food law, Polish food law and Directive 2001/83/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 November 2001 on the Community code relating to medicinal products for human use (and polish pharmaceutical law).
