Food Safety or Fear? Separating Fact from Fiction on Fresh Produce

his week on Fresh from the Field Fridays, Dan the Produce Man welcomes back to the microphone Ross "The Produce Boss" as they recap the recent International Fresh Produce Association Foodservice Conference in Monterey and dive into the latest Cyclospora food safety scare.

How much of what you're seeing on social media is fact, and how much is fear-driven sensationalism? Dan and Ross separate fact from fiction, discuss what produce is safe, what consumers should know, and how to make sure you're getting accurate information instead of clickbait. Plus, they cover the importance of keeping fresh fruits and vegetables at the center of a healthy diet and much more.
