Food Safety Talk 180: That's the Question *I'm* Asking!

The show opens with nonfood safety talk, including Skype, hockey, and Philmont Scout Ranch before dipping into food safety and a discussion of Purell VF 481 (they are not a sponsor). Ben asks Don about fresh produce food safety, and they talk about agricultural water, and Ben mentions about an upcoming talk to high school students about food safety in their greenhouses. Listener feedback inspires the guys to talk about the ongoing feud between the Washington Post and USDA FSIS. More listener feedback brings a discussion about safe recipes, and more computer terminology that might be relevant to food safety. The guys talk about restaurant leftovers, which leads to a discussion about restaurant buffets. The show ends with a discussion of packaging innovations that improve food safety, and the safety of roadkill (with a brief digression into podcasts), before ending up on the topic of third-party delivery services and the kind of food safety training they need. It's a long after-show after the outro music for those who are into that kind of thing.

Food Safety Talk 180: That's the Question *I'm* Asking!

Don Schaffner and Ben Chapman

Food Safety Talk 178: Search for the Word "Vomit"

The guys want to let everyone know up front that they will be recording a special frozen food themed episode next week with the sponsorship of the American Frozen Food Institute. The audio recording of the show will appear in the regular podcast feed, but if you want to listen and watch in real time you can register on the AFFI website at the link below.

The regular show opens with a discussion about Ben's upcoming relay race across the state of South Carolina, and the reason for the early-morning reporting of the podcast. From Palmetto relays to palmetto bugs, the show dips quickly into food safety, Ben's favorite thermometer, and how smells can make both of your hosts feel queasy. There's a brief musical interlude while Ben goes to look after his dog, and after he returns he shares his adventures with a chainsaw. The food safety starts in earnest with a remembrance of Pete Snyder, and then Don talks about pesticide food safety. Then brings things back to microbial food safety by talking about a recent botulism outbreak in New York City. From there the guys transition to listener feedback where they talk about blanching versus cooking, how the FDA model food code and the food code Annex are developed. The next bit of listener feedback the guys revisit microbiological safety of citrus rind, as well as the effect of ethanol on microorganisms. There's a brief technical digression into pushing and pumping things off of stacks before a return to food safety. The guys talk a little bit about gluten-free flour, and its microbiological risks and how they might be controlled before wrapping up quickly to mention a novel technique for not spitting on your birthday cake.

Food Safety Talk 176: Bug Book

The show opens with a discussion about privacy, whether you should cover the microphone on your computer, or how you can scare your kids using Alexa. The guys talked briefly about what they're watching, Ben's trip to Athens Georgia, and celebrity feet. From there the show moves into listener feedback talking about the safety of eating Canadian seaweed. Listener feedback makes a interesting segue into failure, and the things we can learn from it. The show returns to listener feedback with a discussion about citrus safety and infused water. For some reason Don wants to talk about smoke detectors, before returning again to listener feedback and "Contamination Corner", and ways to learn about stuff you don't know about (like filibusters). Ben and Don talk about an interview that Don did for Cooking Light, before Don wants to talk about fixing his broken software. Ben ends the show with a long discussion regarding safe cooking directions for frozen vegetables, and why no one can agree. Show notes so you can follow along at home are below:

Food Safety Talk 174: No Borscht Collusion

The show starts with a discussion of Ben’s vocal fry, which leads to an interesting digression regarding fried fish. Ben follows up with a discussion about emptying his inbox and what sparks joy. This leads to a semi-deep dive on productivity before a short segment on television recommendations. Food safety talk begins with discussion about flour safety, which moves on to a viral video on leftover pasta safety tied to food poisoning incident from more than a decade ago. There is a discussion about the safety of fast food left out of temperature control for several hours before the guys move on to listener feedback. Listener feedback covers handling wedding leftovers, canning borscht, and the benefits using aseptic technique when pouring milk. Listener feedback is interrupted by more discussion of food safety in the news, and a recipe for overnight cooking, and crockpot safety. Ben discusses pet food safety, before returning to listener questions on the proper sanitary technique for disinfecting a spatula left behind the stove for a year, and confusing deli meat labels, before the show ends with a brief chat about microbiological risks from sinks and how they are spread.

The next topic is Chipotle's recent problem with Clostridium perfringens in their beans. The guys introduce a new segment on Canadian foods, before moving to listener feedback on fermented foods, CSPI, and thermometer calibration, times and temperatures, food dehydrators, handwashing, and double gloving. The show ends with a discussion of a recent cookbook recall.

Food Safety Talk 160: The Bounds of Credulity

The guys open the show by calling each other at the same exact time, and after some podcast and productivity life hack talk, the conversation turns to recycled news, Betteridge-style headlines, and foodborne disease trends. Don then asks Ben for advice on talking to reporters about rodents in bottles. Listener feedback covers raw pet food risk, flour heating validation, leftover storage and safety, water container hygiene, rotisserie chicken handling, tong and some spatula reuse followup. The show ends with a rapid fire mention of many currently ongoing recall and outbreaks in this summer of food safety.

Food Safety Talk 158: Sullied in This Way

Don Schaffner and Ben Chapman

Food Safety Talk 156: Rank the Kato's

The show opens with a discussion of the new videogame Fortnight that Ben's kids are obsessed with. The guys briefly comment on a recent Do By Friday episode before talking about their recent travels. Since Ben was recently in Washington DC, he can't avoid talking about hockey and the Stanley Cup. The food safety talk begins in earnest when the guys talk about the sad and untimely death of chef Anthony Bourdain. The guys reminisce about him before shamelessly plugging their upcoming live podcast at the Food Law Seminar at Michigan State. The Multistate Outbreak of Salmonella Adelaide Infections Linked to Pre-Cut Melon is in the news, and that's the next topic for discussion. A grab bag silly food safety topics rounds out the episode including Salmonella at Caffe Nero, cooking hotdogs on your snowmobile, the dangers of eating squid sperm, and the risks of tampering with food.
