It is true that the primary food safety hazard is contamination of the food. Food going bad is also a hazard, although that could also be construed as a form of contamination by bacteria. You could, in theory, be injured by having a large quantity of food fall on top of you, which would only be a hazard in a food warehouse, if the food was not properly stored. If flour dust gets into the air, it is highly flammable and can explode, which is another kind of food safety hazard. If you fell into a huge vat of molasses, you could drown. So a variety of hazards are at least theoretically possible.
