Food Safety Talk 153: While They Are Poopin’

Posted on by

Don and Ben talk about human pathogens in produce and trying to define baseline for prevalence (which is complicated, and it depends). The conversation then goes to a discussion on Don’s appearance on Do By Friday and where podcasts fit into extension and outreach. The show ends on some listener feedback and the guys trying to figure out the history of consumer-focused storage time/temperature guidance.
