There are many different kinds of poisons, and some of them would be very difficult to detect. The traditional method of detecting poisoned food, used by medieval monarchs, was to have a food taster who eats some of your food before you do; if the taster does not become sick, the food is probably not poisoned (although to be strictly accurate I should note that there exist poisons that do not have an immediate effect, such as carcinogens which can result in cancer, months after you eat them, so the food taster will not always help you). There is no perfect protection against poisoned food, but if your food is prepared by someone who does not have any motive to kill you, it is probably not going to be poisoned. When having dinner with your mortal enemy, beware.
