Top 10 Good Reads – July Week 1

Hi Everyone!

Firtsly, my appologies. It has been a little while since my last post, but worry not – I have not forgotten about you all, and things should return to normal soon enough. Its a pleasure to return to the bloggosphere with one of my favorite types of posts. I’m personally a big fan and subscriber to a lot of “foodie” blogs and like to keep myself informed on news in the industry. This post simply lists my top 10 favorites from the past week (and a half).

In this weeks edition I have listed a few articles touching on some of the more recent problems consumers, manufacturers and the FDA have been experiencing with each other. Sparked by the recent salmonella and e-coli outbreaks/recalls, consumer trust of manufacturers has seemed to plunge to a new low (apparently only 20% in the USA trust manufacturers). Add to that the increase of law suites filed against manufacturers, and things start to look a bit ugly. Hopefully it is something we can rectify moving forward?

All this and few more good reads for you to all ENJOY!
