The first food safety topic for discussion is a recent article on the relationship between minimum wage and restaurant inspection reports. The listener feedback section includes a discussion of vacuum packaged fish and botulism, clever tips for training unusual audiences, and the importance of cleaning the crud at the bottom of steam kettles. This leads to a discussion of allergens and species adulteration. Listener feedback concludes with a discussion of lactic acid as an alternative to triclosan in dish liquids. A discussion of food safety in the news includes the risks of chicken sashimi, and some insight into the California nacho cheese outbreak.
