A slimmed down iFSN PhD student Ben Chapman gave an enthusiastically received talk talk today at the International Association for Food Protection annual meeting in Orlando, Florida. Ben wowed the audience with his hip pop culture references and self-directed sardonic statements,  but he’s still a geek.

Ben talked about his PhD research related to food safety information sheets targeted at food service workers, something along the lines of what was reported in my hometown paper tonight. Traditional food safety communications is failing the 18-30-year-olds — the ones who most likely made your dinner if you went out. So we’ll experiment with something different.
