Don’t Eat C-SPAN (Frank Yiannas’s Testimony Before Congress) | Episode 9

Cover of Don't Eat Poop! A Food Safety Podcast

In this episode, we go full C-SPAN…

Frank Yiannas (former chief of the “food” side of the FDA) has testified on Capitol Hill about the bacterial contamination at a Michigan plant that led to a baby formula shortage last February.

Babies, we hope it doesn’t need to be said, should not be getting sick from drinking formula.

Yiannis agrees, and his no-holds-barred testimony took industry and government alike to task for allowing this to happen and pointing toward reforms to be implemented to avoid a repeat.

Join Matt and Francine for commentary on Yiannas’s testimony, musings on the issues it raises, and no shortage of jokes. Because that’s simply how they roll.

We hope you enjoy this episode!
