Debunking the common and audience-supplied food mythology with entertaining facts from a real, honest-to-goodness professional scientist. Combining policy, pragmatic takes, and a willingness to hear dissent, one scientist attempts to promote factual takes on food myths.
Today we're joined by Greg Jaffe, noted food policy expert and advocate for biotechnology-driven food production. Greg has spent a life working in food, first at the Department of Justice and Environmental Protection Agency, then at the Center for Science in the Public Interest, and most recently at the US Department of Agriculture. He has since left government and launched his own agency to help others solve their emerging food tech issues. Greg is a deep thinker and thoughtful policy maker. If you ever wanted to meet the kind of person who makes food policy for a country, well, here you go! Greg and I have crossed paths over the years many times on numerous issues - we discuss biotechnology as necessary move forward for food, the challenges he's seen in getting through to consumers, and frankly, what we can do to build a healthy future.
