That’s a wrap on @hartnellcollege’s 19th Annua

That’s a wrap on @hartnellcollege’s 19th Annual Western Food Safety Conference! ☀️ It was an informative and invigorating two days. The conference provides an opportunity for food safety industry leaders to come together and share research and regulatory developments.

Our CTO Mike Menes was there and said, “Food safety continues to be a core focus for us. A deep thanks to the organizers of the Western Food Safety Conference for bringing all the experts together for such a critical issue. It was a huge success!”

Have you heard of the Environmental Working Group’s Dirty Dozen list?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Each year, the @environmentalworkinggroup publishes a list describing the 12 fruits and vegetables most contaminated with pesticide residues, based on analysis of testing data from the Department of Agriculture and the Food & Drug Administration. EWG found that 95% of samples on the Dirty Dozen list contained pesticides. If you’re looking for ways to reduce your pesticide exposure, here are a few handy tips:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🥬 Discard the outer layer of leafy vegetables and peel your fruits & veggies when possible
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🚰Wash your produce under running water rather than soaking or dunking it
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🫐Eat a variety of fruits & veggies (which you should, anyway!) to minimize potential of increased exposure to a single pesticide
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🫑 Choose organic produce as much as possible (did you know that a 100 percent organic diet can rapidly and dramatically reduce your exposure to pesticides by 60% in only 6 days?)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🧑‍🌾 Grow organic fruits & veggies at home (our personal favorite! 😉)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Growing your own organic food is a rewarding, economical and easy way to know exactly what’s ending up on your plate.
